Faun, horse and bird 1936

"Faun, horse and bird" is a 1936 watercolor on paper artwork by Pablo Picasso, currently housed at the Musée Picasso in Paris, France. The work depicts a stylized faun with a bull's head kneeling on a rock with a skeletal horse in the background. The horse's form is composed of jagged lines, a recurring motif in Picasso's works of this period. The composition is characteristic of Picasso's Cubist approach, where forms are fragmented and reassembled in a visually arresting way, highlighting the artist's fascination with the interplay of form and abstraction.
