Both works were created by Pablo Picasso. They are similar because Picasso reduces the human figure to interlocking planes and fragmented lines—whether with short, overlapping hatch marks in a drawing or with the sharp, angular facets of his cubist nudes—showing multiple viewpoints at once. The drawing was likely a preparatory study produced before the finished abstract painting (Picasso often made sketches to work out composition and form). The purpose of the drawing was to explore composition and relationships of forms, while the painting was the finished, public statement that pushed traditional representation and advanced his cubist/modernist ideas.
