Pablo Picasso's "Las Meninas (Velazquez)" (1957) is a powerful interpretation of Diego Velazquez's iconic 17th-century painting. Picasso, known for his Cubist style, reinterprets the original composition, emphasizing the figure of the Infanta Margarita. The bold brushstrokes and simplified forms create a dynamic, abstract depiction of the princess, emphasizing her presence in the scene. This work is a testament to Picasso's mastery of reinterpreting historical art through a distinctly modern lens.
