From the Paper:
"Pablo Picasso's 1906 portrait of Gertrude Stein and Willem de Kooning's 1944 painting "Woman" are both fascinating in themselves and at least somewhat anomalous in terms of each artist's canon of work, especially in terms of their depictions of women and the human form. The essay examines these two work, after providing a very brief overview of the artists' background.Pablo Ruiz y Picasso was prolific both in terms of absolute numbers of works " having created more than 20,000 pieces " and in terms of creativity, as an innovator of styles and techniques, as a master of various media, and as one of the most prolific artists in history.
Picasso's genius manifested itself early: at the age of 10 he made his first paintings, and at 15 he performed brilliantly on the entrance examinations to Barcelona's School of Fine Arts. "
