Painted in the fall of 1937—the same monumental year Picasso created Guernica—Portrait of Dora Maar is an undisputed triumph of his Surrealist period. Dora Maar was an exceptionally talented French photographer, painter, and poet who became Picasso’s primary companion and muse during the Spanish Civil War. In this famous depiction, Picasso captures Maar seated in a wicker chair, twisting her features so that her face is seen simultaneously from the front and profile, accented by dramatic crimson fingernails and tear-like motifs. Merging analytical geometry with psychological intensity and vivid jewel tones, Picasso immortalizes his brilliant partner as an emblem of the emotional turbulence of wartime Europe.
