About this work

This painting shows a face turned slightly to the side, with big, simple shapes instead of realistic details. The background is mostly black, while the face is made of flat brown and beige patches. There’s a hat on top, and the eyes, nose, and mouth are marked with bold red and black lines. Picasso made this using a linoleum cut, which means he carved into linoleum and then printed it. The bold outlines and flat colors make the face look almost like a mask. If you like this style, look up Pablo Picasso.
