Classical Head 1922

"Classical Head" is an oil on canvas painting created in 1922 by the Spanish artist Pablo Picasso. The painting depicts a woman's head and shoulders, with her head tilted down and her gaze directed downwards. Her hair is styled in a classical manner, with a long braid cascading down her back. The painting is characterized by Picasso's signature Cubist style, which breaks down forms into geometric shapes and layers, while still retaining a sense of realism. The painting's muted color palette further contributes to the melancholic and introspective mood of the subject.
