Portrait of Igor Stravinsky 1920

Pablo Picasso's 1920 *Portrait of Igor Stravinsky* is a masterful example of line drawing. Created in black ink on paper, the work captures the likeness of the famed Russian composer with sharp, expressive strokes. The artist's signature style, characterized by angular features and elongated forms, is evident in Stravinsky's prominent nose and piercing gaze. The composition is simple yet striking, with Stravinsky seated in a chair, his hands resting in his lap, reflecting his intellectual and artistic presence. This portrait, created during Picasso's Cubist period, is a powerful representation of the iconic composer's persona.
