«The late work of Picasso is characterised by works varying the ageless issue ‹painter and model›, being of lively eroticism. Particularly interesting is the dual presentation of the woman as a stylised flower on the left and next to it as a veristic figure in inviting pose. Picasso is painter and yet a voyeur.» from: Roland Doschka, Picasso - Arbeiten auf Papier, Hommage zum 125. Geburtstag
We would like to thank Prof. Dr. Roland Doschka, Reutlingen, for the scientific consultation.
Provenance: collection Adolphe Louis Gaussen; private collection Prof. Dr. Roland Doschka, Reutlingen; transferred by sale to private collection Kaiserstuhl, in 2007.
The French painter Adolphe Louis Gaussen (1871 - 1954) maintained an art collection besides to his own artistic work, being pursued after his death. It can be presumed that the drawing has been created explicitly for his collection, for the name Gaussen is legible in a prominent position.
Prof. Dr. Roland Doschka, former Academic Council of the University
