Masterpiece by the Spanish painter Pablo Picasso, the painting portrays a group of nude women disregarding spaces and depths, focusing instead on the two-dimensional image. The painting is considered the root of the later Cubist style. Some experts claim that the aesthetic foundation of the composition was inspired by the painting "Opening of the Fifth Seal" by El Greco (1614).

Why is this painting famous?

Les Demoiselles d’Avignon by Pablo Picasso is famous for marking a turning point in art history, breaking radically with traditional representation. It depicts female figures fragmented into angular planes, influenced by African art and Primitivism, and is considered the foundational work of Cubism. Its formal audacity and rejection of Renaissance perspective shocked its contemporaries but also paved the way for modern painting in the 20th century. Discover more famous paintings
