Self-Portrait 1906

Pablo Picasso's "Self-Portrait" from 1906 is a powerful example of the artist's early exploration of cubism. The painting is characterized by its flat planes of color and distorted features, giving the subject an almost mask-like quality. Picasso's simplified form and use of bold lines create a sense of depth and abstraction, marking a pivotal moment in the development of his style. This work exemplifies Picasso's shift from traditional representation to a more analytical and geometric approach.
