I went and saw this painting in the Guggenheim and it took my breath away, I even purchased a replica.

Jan- the print itself is basically worthless. The quality of the frame will determine the resale value, if any. This is my favorite Picasso. If I were you I would simply treasure having this lovely image in my home.

She looks sad and depressed, perhaps due to the enormous amount of housweork she must partake in every day, or maybe her husband has left her for not ironing enough

'The painting is certainly impressive, to say the least. But what has always struck me as curious is that none of Picasso's other works from this period are anywhere near as accomplished as this painting. It is a well known fact that at one time it was a common practice in teaching painting, for the master to repaint areas of the student's work. In the case of this painting, I cannot help but wonder how much of it might have actually been painted by Picasso's father.'

'How much perversion to treat a couple as if they were an object (a model, "muse", etc.) and be indifferent to painting their suffering over and over again, for years without doing anything to help her.'

'I think, when dealing with an abstract piece, one must take an approach similar to reading. On the right, I can see buildings, a staple of modern life. Warm colours, may indicate heat? There's a curtain on the left harlequin. Now we just have to make sense of it.'
