{"product_id":"weeping-woman-pablo-picasso","title":"Weeping Woman - Pablo Picasso","description":"\u003cp\u003eA powerful 1937 Cubist portrait by Pablo Picasso, depicting the subject Dora Maar through fractured planes and high-contrast colours to express intense grief.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePainted in 1937, this work is part of a series by Pablo Picasso that explores the theme of suffering. The subject is Dora Maar, a photographer and artist who was Picasso's companion during the period he worked on Guernica. The composition employs the fractured visual language of Cubism to convey emotional distress. Picasso deconstructs the facial features, using sharp angles and disjointed planes to represent the subject's grief. The handkerchief pressed against the mouth, the distorted eyes, and the jagged lines of the jaw create a sense of physical and psychological fragmentation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe palette is aggressive and high-contrast, featuring acidic yellows, deep reds, and stark whites. These colours do not aim for naturalism but instead serve to amplify the tension within the frame. The background is simplified into vertical bands, which keeps the focus on the subject's contorted expression. By breaking the face into geometric segments, Picasso moves away from traditional portraiture, opting instead for a symbolic representation of human anguish. The work reflects the artist's preoccupation with the impact of the Spanish Civil War, using the image of the weeping woman as a universal icon of loss and trauma.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis print captures the precise brushwork and the raw energy of the original oil painting. The stark lines and bold colour choices make it a striking addition to any collection of twentieth-century art. It remains a clear example of how Picasso utilised the techniques of modernism to communicate complex human emotions through non-traditional forms.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top:2rem;padding-top:1.5rem;border-top:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:0.85rem;color:#888;font-weight:600;margin:0 0 0.75rem;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:0.05em;\"\u003eYou might also like\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:0.5rem;\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/de\/products\/glass-and-checkerboard-juan-gris\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eGlass and Checkerboard - Juan Gris — Juan Gris\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/de\/products\/cubist-figure-salvador-dali\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eCubist Figure - Salvador Dalí — Salvador Dalí\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Pablo Picasso","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58828236652879,"sku":null,"price":28.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58828260475215,"sku":null,"price":35.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58828260507983,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ B2 (50x70 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58828260540751,"sku":null,"price":50.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A1 (59.4 x 84.1  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58828260573519,"sku":null,"price":55.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/Weeping-Woman_Poster_CompositorV1_1789893160909.jpg?v=1789893697","url":"https:\/\/www.solisprints.co.uk\/de\/products\/weeping-woman-pablo-picasso","provider":"Solis Prints","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
