From Yale University Art Gallery:
Pablo Picasso painted Femme assise after a one-year hiatus from painting, during which he turned to writing and penned more than one hundred poems. When he resumed
painting in April 1936, he created a rapid succession of images inspired by his mistress, Marie-Thérèse Walter, including this work, which is marked by anatomic
confusion and high-keyed color. Green-yellow sunlight burns through the window to the left of the figure, its garish brightness casting a deep purple shadow under
her eye and down her cheek. To her right, Picasso inserted his own shadowy profile, overlapping this trace of his self with hers–though his profile faces away from
the sun’s punishing glare.
