Another painting the 19 or 20 year old Pablo Picasso painted in 1901 is a still life titled Chrysanthemums. The flowers, vase, and table are pretty straightforward, while the background is somewhat impressionistic and unusual in his choice of colors. This painting, like the one in my previous post is on display at the Philadelphia Museum of Art.

Pablo Picasso made his first visit to Paris in 1900, arriving just before his 19th birthday on October 25, 1900. After about 2 months he went back to Spain, arriving in his home town of Malaga on January 1, 1901. Picasso returned to Paris for his second visit in May 1901.
Today's painting is one of two at the Philadelphia Museum of Art that Picasso painted in 1901, when he was 19 or 20 years old. Head of a Woman is a slightly grotesque portrait, similar to other portraits of Parisian ladies of the night but perhaps less grotesque.
