Big day....my boiler in basement needed a minor fix.......Got a guy lined up who came today, I only had one problem.....the f'ing furnace is in my grow sanctum....had to pull off a Harry Houdini .....holy shit what a pain in the ass. Went later got Pfizer booster and Shingles vaccine ( a good friend of mine got that shit on her face.....years later it's still a mess from nerve damage) and then the magic......ran into the love of my life at a yard sale nearby..........Dora Mar ! For 2 bucks I brought her home. I'll redo frame and matting, the print is high quality.....perfect condition. Certainly not for everybody, but this portrait slays me. I'm sitting here puffing, winking at this magnificent woman.

I had never seen them but thought they look like Picasso...then I read this...very cool.
Relationship with Pablo Picasso
Maar first saw Pablo Picasso at the end of 1935 when she was taking promotional shots on the set of the Jean Renoir film The Crime of Monsieur Lange. She was captivated by him, but they did not formally meet. Maar was introduced to Picasso a few days later by their mutual friend Paul Eluard at Cafe des Deux Magots.[19] The story of their first encounter was told by the writer Jean-Paul Crespelle, "the young woman serious face, lit up by pale blue eyes which looked all the paler because of her thick eyebrows; a sensitive uneasy face, with light and shade passing alternately over it. She kept driving a small pointed pen-knife between her fingers into the wood of the table. Sometimes she missed and a drop of blood appeared between the roses embroidered on her black gloves... Picasso would ask Dora to give him the gloves and would lock them up in the showcase he kept for his mementos."[4]
Picasso was intrigued by Mara's seductive and masochistic behaviour, which served as inspiration for many of his works throughout their relationship. Their liaison would last nearly nine years, during which time Picasso did not end his relationship with Marie-Thérèse Walter, mother of his daughter Maya.
Maar photographed the successive stages of the creation of Guernica,[20] painted by Picasso in his studio in the rue des Grands-Augustins from May to June 1937; Picasso used these photographs in his creative process. She was Picasso's principal model, and he often represented her in tears. Maar boosted Picasso's understanding of politics and taught him skills in photography. Marr also introduced Picasso to the method of combining photography and printmaking, also known as the cliché verre technique.[21

Cool Manfredo.....I'm pretty damn sure he seduced most women he portrait painted...thanks for correcting the spelling of her last name. I have Guernica, a most powerful painting....Picasso's interpretation of the German bombing of civilians in Spain, I think the first in history. I'm sure the Germans were getting practice for WWII.I had never seen them but thought they look like Picasso...then I read this...very cool.
