Pablo Picasso - Absinthe drinker (1901)


At one time, that of absinthe drinkers, which reigned in the Impressionists. Picasso makes it his and realizes it in his own way, in a new way.
Colors speak for forms. The bright colors of the composition highlight even more the lack of structure of the shades of the woman's face, which due to her vice was not in optimal shape.
Picasso has such a unique genius that he can offer himself as a starting point for the avant-garde.
