Broc et verre 1959

"Broc et verre" (1959) is a bold and colorful painting by Pablo Picasso. It is characteristic of his later works, employing a simplified, geometric style. The composition features a vibrant red, black, green and yellow palette, with distinct shapes and forms. It demonstrates Picasso’s mastery of line and form, and his ability to transform everyday objects into abstract compositions. The title, which translates to "Jug and Glass," suggests the artist’s fascination with everyday objects and their potential for artistic expression. This is a prime example of Picasso’s work in the late 1950s, showing his embrace of abstract and cubist styles, and his creative exploration of line, form, and color.
