From Sotheby's auction house:
Picasso created this stunning pastel nude in Barcelona in 1903. The year marked the apotheosis of Picasso’s celebrated Blue period (late 1901-1904), and the present work is imbued with a sense of fragility and melancholy that was to become synonymous with this phase of his career. The pictures of the Blue period are often characterized by poignant images of forlorn women and despondent men, often isolated and lost in thought. This was the period when he created some of his most defining works, including Old Guitar Player and Melancholy. This pastel, however, represents an even more fragile aspect of this period in the young artist’s life; when sex, melancholy, loneliness and vulnerability firmly took root in the artist’s psyche and would ultimately shape every successive period of his art for nearly a century.
