{"product_id":"picasso-femme-a-la-resille-print-2","title":"Picasso Femme à la résille Print","description":"\u003cp\u003eCombining aspects of Synthetic Cubism with biomorphic Surrealist forms, this exuberant portrait of acclaimed Surrealist photographer and painter Dora Maar embodies a radical inventiveness for which her photography was renowned. Pablo Picasso had met Maar in 1935, just several months after his then-lover Marie-Thérèse Walter had given birth to their daughter. In the following years, Picasso alternated back and forth between the two women – both romantically and in paint. Just one month after \u003cem\u003eFemme à la résille [Woman in a Hairnet]\u003c\/em\u003e, 1938 was painted, Picasso portrayed Marie-Thérèse in the exact same pose. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eFemme à la résille [Woman in a Hairnet]\u003c\/em\u003e comes from a critical moment in Picasso’s career. The year before, he had completed the monumental anti-war mural \u003cem\u003eGuernica\u003c\/em\u003e in response to the Spanish Civil War, the painting of which Maar, a left-wing activist, photographed. That same year, she would be immortalised in a series of 36\u003cem\u003e Weeping Woman\u003c\/em\u003e paintings made as a postscript to \u003cem\u003eGuernica\u003c\/em\u003e. While for Picasso Maar ‘was always a weeping woman’, she bitterly resented this characterisation, vehemently asserting: ‘All [Picasso’s] portraits of me are lies. Not one is Dora Maar.’\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eFemme à la résille [Woman in a Hairnet]\u003c\/em\u003e 1938 \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e18.5 x 15.3cm (image only), 20cm x 16.6cm (with white border) \u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e27.8 x 35.2 x 0.1cm (including white matting)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003emade in New Zealand\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #ff2a00;\"\u003eUnframed prints can be shipped both nationally and internationally, framed prints are only available to be shipped within Aotearoa, New Zealand.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Auckland Art Gallery Shop","offers":[{"title":"Rectangular Black","offer_id":48689757487354,"sku":null,"price":130.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Rectangular White","offer_id":48689757520122,"sku":null,"price":130.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Unframed","offer_id":48689757552890,"sku":null,"price":65.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1296\/6027\/files\/pablo-picasso-femme-a-la-resille-_Woman-in-a-hairnet_-print_6768c623-b793-409a-9ea2-0740065fa3a0.jpg?v=1776383217","url":"https:\/\/shop.aucklandartgallery.com\/products\/picasso-femme-a-la-resille-print-2","provider":"Auckland Art Gallery Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
