DISCUSSION:
Full of highly saturated vibrant colors, this piece illustrates one of the works in a series based on Jacqueline. Combining the use of delicate expressive imagery and the bold abstraction of cubism, this work evokes a sense of delight and contentment.

Created in 1956, this color lithograph was published and printed by Mourlot, Paris. Signed by Pablo Picasso (1881 - 1973) in pencil in the lower right margin, this work is numbered 37/50 in the lower left. This work was designed using an original painting from 1954 titled 'Jacqueline with Flowers'.

Presenting the portrait in an extremely stylized manner, Picasso breaks apart the figure through the use of bold lines and patterns. In contrast with the geometric form of Jacqueline, a cluster of delicate pink roses with vibrant green leaves trail up the left hand side of the work. With her elongated neck emphasizing the gracefulness of her features, the figure is depicted in profile with pale toned skin and dark hair. Behind the figure bright hues bounce off the page, with a bright blue background and vibrant red just below dividing the picture plane. In the figure's dress pale pinks, bright oranges, and dark blacks create a sense of motion and activity which brings this picture to life.
