gandalf1202: Pablo Picasso - Woman in a Pink Dress [1917] on Flickr. Picasso’s creative versatility was unmatched by any artist of the 20th century. This painting is a remarkable example of this accomplishment, as it marks the moment of Picasso’s departure from Cubism towards the Neo-Classical stylisation that would transform his painting at the end of the first world war. According to Christian Zervos, the present picture dates from 1917, one of the most significant moments in Picasso’s production and personal life. This painting remained in Picasso’s private collection until his death in 1973. The picture then belonged to Bernard Picasso, the grandson of Picasso and Olga. It was later acquired by the popular American novelist, Michael Crichton. [Sold for $4,197,000 at Sotheby’s - Oil on canvas, 100 x 81 cm] -- source link
