Woman Seated in Chair, 1941
Pablo Picasso
Production Date Unknown
This is a hard to find BRP puzzle. It was a quick and easy build. The colors are a bit muted as compared to the image on the box.
Painted in 1941, Woman Seated in Chair exemplifies Picasso’s intensely expressive style during the years of the Second World War. The seated woman is constructed from angular, fragmented forms, with her face and body distorted into overlapping geometric shapes. Strong outlines and contrasting areas of color give the figure a tense, almost unsettling presence, while the chair provides a recognizable framework for the otherwise fractured composition. Rather than seeking a naturalistic portrait, Picasso uses distortion and multiple viewpoints to convey emotion and psychological intensity, reflecting the darker atmosphere of his wartime work.
