Seated female nude 1959

Created in 1959, "Seated female nude" is a painting by Pablo Picasso, known for his Cubist style. The artwork portrays a nude female figure in a seated position with her hands clasped together, her face depicted with geometric shapes. The composition is simplified, highlighting the figure's form through the use of black and white lines and tones against a blue background. This work demonstrates Picasso's fascination with abstraction and his exploration of the human form through fragmented and stylized elements, characteristic of his later career.
