Still life with bull's skull 1939

"Still Life with Bull's Skull" is a 1939 painting by Pablo Picasso, housed at the Cleveland Museum of Art. The work exemplifies Picasso's Cubist style with its fractured forms and bold color palette. The skull, a recurring symbol in Picasso's work, represents death and mortality, while the brightly colored still life objects, including a pitcher and fruit, suggest life and abundance. The contrasting imagery creates a powerful and thought-provoking composition.
