The Luncheon on the Grass 1962

"The Luncheon on the Grass," painted in 1962 by Pablo Picasso, is a reinterpretation of Édouard Manet's iconic painting of the same name. Picasso’s Cubist approach is evident in the fragmented forms and bold colors. The figures are reduced to geometric shapes and flattened planes, creating a sense of distortion and abstractness. This playful yet powerful piece exemplifies Picasso's exploration of the human form and his unique artistic vision, showcasing the lasting influence of Manet's controversial masterpiece on modern art.
