My recapturing of Picasso was the idea of bringing forth the pictures of the faces. I felt they made the most impact to me due to the fact that they were the most significantly different parts of the women that were portrayed in the painting. By having the different faces, it shows to me the differences in looks among women and how they are thought of differently depending on the eyes of the beholder.
After studying the portrait a bit more and understanding background information, I learned he drew his inspiration from African art, which makes more sense after looking at the faces that are pictured on the women. There was also inspiration coming from different cultures, and this painting was gradually leading toward his era of Cubism with his art.
