Pablo Picasso

Peintre et son modèle (Painter and his Model)

A masterful aquatint by Pablo Picasso, *Peintre et son modèle (Painter and his Model)* explores the timeless relationship between artist and subject through his iconic Cubist visual language. The composition fragments and reassembles the figures of the painter and model into interlocking geometric planes, blurring the boundary between creator and creation. Printed on the fine Richard de Bas paper with full margins, the work exemplifies Picasso's virtuosic command of the printmaking medium.
