1 answer

"Les Demoiselles d'Avignon" is a seminal work in the development of Cubism, painted by Pablo Picasso in 1907. The painting depicts five prostitutes in a brothel, shown in a highly stylized and fragmented form. The women are represented as angular and abstracted figures, with sharp geometric shapes and distorted proportions. The painting is notable for its revolutionary approach to space and form, and for its influence on the development of modern art.
