Autoportrait (Self-Portrait)

Picasso painted this self-portrait after spending the summer of 1906 in Gósol, a small village in the Spanish Pyrenees. The stay had become synonymous with a decisive new direction in his style: a movement that was directed towards simplified forms with decidedly archaic, sculptural appearance.
