Picasso model
(not pikassoved just pikassofil)
Everyone is familiar with dozens of portraits of civilian wives Picasso (and official-Khokhlova). But Picasso's long time writing the same nameless models - the elderly, women and children. Curious who they were, these men, whose portraits adorn the best museums ... may be in the books had long been described, but I'll share my personal little "discovery".
In blue and pink period, Picasso often used as a model of a teenage boy - The boy with a horse (Washington), Boy with a dog (Hermitage), Boy with a Pipe ... and much more. And considering the girl on the ball (Pushkin), I see that a strong adult athlete, acrobat - it is the same boy! Specifically, of 12-year-old Picasso took only his head and his body placed a man. And there is a sketch where an acrobat, with his head, but in a painting by Pablo left his body and his head was replaced.
Because of this, an acrobat a pretty ostranennym, unearthly, as the proportions change. Funny ...
