One of my all time favorite paintings . . . . .

I just love this painting. I can't quite say why, there's just something about it. And, it's so unlike what is typically associated with Picasso.

1. Boy leading horse is one of my favorites...

He was more talented than his more "popular" works let on. :hi:

2. I think with "Blue Nude" the reason I like it so much is there is so

much that isn't revealed. . . and I don't just mean physically, I mean emotionally . . . there is no clue what the woman is feeling, although to me it seems to convey sadness. But, that sadness may be merely a result of the overall blue coloration and the title of the painting too.
