Pablo Picasso's 1936 etching "Faun unveiling a sleeping girl (Jupiter and Antiope, after Rembrandt)" is a reimagining of Rembrandt's painting of the same subject. The piece displays Picasso's characteristic Cubist style with fragmented forms and bold lines, depicted in black and white. The dynamic composition emphasizes the drama of the scene, where the Faun, depicted with a horned head, is depicted kneeling and revealing a reclining, naked woman. This work is a testament to Picasso's artistic exploration of classical mythology and his mastery of printmaking, showcased in the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in New York City.
