Pablo Picasso: Dora Maar assise
This poster features Pablo Picasso’s Dora Maar assise (1937), which is held in the collection of the Musée national Picasso–Paris. The painting portrays its subject, who was Picasso’s lover for nine tempestuous years, twelve months after she and the artist first met in Paris. Considered one of Picasso’s masterpieces, it shows Maar as an elegantly attired woman in a relaxed pose—though the bars of her chair and the fractured, angular lines of her body hint at a darker emotional reality. Her face combines frontal and profile views, evoking a complex personality through multiple perspectives.
