This striking lithograph by Pablo Picasso belongs to the artist’s mature period, when he frequently revisited the female form with bold, inventive lines and a playful reimagining of classical portraiture. Executed in 1959, La Fille au Chapeaupresents a seated woman adorned with elaborate jewelry and a wide-brimmed hat, rendered with Picasso’s characteristic economy of line and expressive vigor. The composition is a fine example of Picasso’s graphic work of the late 1950s, marked by his collaboration with master printer Fernand Mourlot, with whom he produced over 400 lithographs between 1945 and 1969. The present work demonstrates the artist’s ability to merge elegance and humor while celebrating the sensuality and individuality of his models.
