Summer landscape 1902

This watercolor painting, "Summer Landscape", created by Pablo Picasso in 1902, depicts a simplified, almost abstract landscape. It is characterized by a flat perspective and a limited color palette, using primarily warm hues of yellow, orange, and green. The artist's early style, often referred to as his "Blue Period," is reflected in the melancholic tones and the emphasis on natural forms, which serve as a backdrop to human emotions. The painting is considered a notable work from Picasso's early period, showcasing his evolving artistic voice and exploration of color and form.
