Notes

Pancho Guedes was inspired by many of the early modernists, including Giorgio de Chirico, Paul Klee and, in the present lot, Pablo Picasso. The figures in this lot directly reference the series of nearly 30 sexually-charged paintings of women bathers on the beach that Picasso produced during his summer holiday in Dinard, northern France, in 1928.
