Woman with Pears
work by Picasso
Quick Summary
"Woman with Pears" is a 1909 painting by Pablo Picasso. It is an example of Analytical Cubism, a style Picasso developed with Georges Braque. This style broke from traditional Renaissance art by showing multiple viewpoints of an object simultaneously on a single canvas, rather than relying on single-point perspective. The palette for these works was typically limited to monochromatic ochres, browns, and grays. The painting is related to Picasso's sculptures and portraits of Fernande, his partner at the time.12
