About this work

You see a woman’s face and shoulder, drawn in quick, scratchy lines. One eye is huge, the other tiny—her nose bends like a question mark. Picasso made this in 1931, the same year he started a series of etchings that feel raw and private. The lines look like he drew them fast, almost like doodles, but each mark sits exactly where it needs to. If you like how this feels, look up the technique etching.
