Portrait of Two Women 1914

Diego Rivera's "Portrait of Two Women" (1914) showcases the artist's early exploration of Cubist principles, evident in the fragmented forms and geometric shapes that define the figures and background. Rivera's signature bold colors, particularly the contrasting blue and white dresses, contribute to the painting's dynamic composition. The Cubist style, a departure from traditional portraiture, captures the essence of the subjects rather than their literal likeness, offering viewers a glimpse into Rivera's evolving artistic style during his time in Paris.
