Description
Original ink drawing on the cover board of an antique book, signed "Picasso" at bottom right. Image depicts the head of a sleeping woman. She has one almond-shaped eye closed, and the other is open but empty. The entire work incorporates linework that seems to converge on the subject herself. With so much going on around her, we still do not know for sure whether she is awake or asleep. Done in the modern cubist style of Pablo Picasso (Spanish, 1881-1973). It bears a strong resemblance to a 1907 study for Picasso's "Nude with Drapery." En verso is the marbled paper covering from an unknown antique book. Piece measures approximately 9.5'' x 6''.
