The Spring (La source) 1921

"The Spring" (La source) is a 1921 etching by Pablo Picasso. The work depicts three figures in a classical style, seated and engaged in a seemingly intimate moment. Picasso's signature is visible in the lower right corner. The artwork's dynamic lines and simplified forms are characteristic of Picasso's artistic style during this period, and the figures' postures evoke a sense of quiet contemplation. This etching showcases Picasso's mastery of line and his ongoing exploration of classical themes within a modern context.
