Three Musicians

Three Musicians

Pablo Picasso (Spanish, 1881-1973)

Fontainebleau, summer 1921.
Oil on canvas, 6' 7" x 7' 3 3/4" (200.7 x 222.9 cm).

The three musicians and dog conjure a bygone period of bohemian life, enjoyed here by Picasso in the guise of a Harlequin flanked by two figures who may represent poet–friends of the artist's: Guillaume Apollinaire, who was recently deceased, and Max Jacob. The patterned flatness of the work is derived from cut–and–pasted paper, and stands in stark contrast to the sculptural monumentality of Picasso's Three Women at the Spring, also painted in the summer of 1921.
