Woman leaving the bath 1901

Pablo Picasso's "Woman Leaving the Bath" from 1901 is a quintessential example of his Blue Period. This artwork depicts a nude woman, her body rendered with elongated limbs and simplified forms, a characteristic feature of Picasso's early style. The figure is shrouded in a white cloth, her head bent down, exuding a melancholic atmosphere. The painting's cool, muted color palette emphasizes the somber mood of the Blue Period, dominated by blues and greens. This artwork is a powerful representation of Picasso's early exploration of form, color, and emotion.
