Weeping Woman - Pablo PicassoCritical Analysis
Pablo Picasso was born on October 25th 1881 in Spain and died on April 8th 1973. He had four children: Paulo who was born on February 4th 1921 and died on June 5th 1975, Maia who was born on September 5th 1935, Claude who was born on May 15th 1947 and Paloma who was born on April 19th 1949. He also had three wives: Olga Khokhlova, Marie-Thérèse Walter and Françoise Gilot. The Weeping Woman series is regarded as a continuation of the tradgedy in Guernica.
The model for the painting was Dora Maar, who was working as a professional photographer when Picasso met her in 1936. She was Picasso's mistress from 1936 until 1944
This picture was painted because Picasso responded to the bombing of the Spanish town, Guernica durong the Spanish Civil war by painting the huge mural Guernica, and for months afterwards he made paintings based on one of the figures in the mural: a weeping woman holding her dead child.
The main feature of the painting is a woman. She is quite obviously distraught as she is grimacing and crying. It is like her face has melted away because she is so sad and it has just left bone there. It is also like the handkerchief she is holding is like broken glass because her world is shattered.
The painting is an oil on canvas and is 60 х 49 cm in size. The first thing I notice in the picture is the broken glass and the bone because it is a different colour to the rest of the painting and is all sharp, jagged lines.
Picasso has used sharp, jagged lines to exaggerate the woman's grief as in the handkerchief, it looks like broken glass. He has used green and yellow in the picture because they clash and make you feel uncomfortable when you look at it. The painting is not realistic at all because he distorted the model's face to make her look grief-stricken and exaggerated her chin by making it look skeletal and painting it a different colour to the rest of the picture.
The mood of the painting is bitter and scared. It makes me feel uncomfortable and awkward because it is a woman weeping and I don't like looking at people crying. The broken glass and bones are strange things to see in a painting but Picasso had his own unique style and it just adds to the grief of the woman.
Studying the Weeping Woman links to Music and Drama because the theme is war and this painting is based on the bombing of the Spanish city of Guernica. In Music we have been studying the soundtrack to Schindler's list which makes me sad when I listen to it. In drama we have been studying Anne Frank which is a sad play. This painting is all about grief and bitterness.

1) Blue Period
2) Rose Period
3) African
and many more but he was just amazing at art.
Hope this helps.
