Alexander, in memory of his friend, Howard Hoyt Shiras, M.D. - In this drawing, marked by Surrealist overtones, Picasso aggressively distorts the figure of a classically-posed reclining female nude. This disfiguration may reflect Picasso&#039;s tense emotional state due to conflict with his wife Olga, whom he frequently depicted as an enraged monster. Picasso began a secret relationship with Marie-Th\u00e9r\u00e8se Walter in 1927, and would leave Olga a year after this print was created. The swallows, shown here in visual shorthand as energetic dashes of black ink, are a migratory bird that symbolizes renewal and change. Created during the geopolitical instability of the inter-war years, this drawing contrasts with the female portraits Picasso produced after World War II that convey a return to classicism and balance.\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-8-33\" srcset=\"https:\/\/courses.bowdoin.edu\/revealing-mediterranean-women-2014\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/107\/2015\/09\/back2-300x238.jpg 300w, https:\/\/courses.bowdoin.edu\/revealing-mediterranean-women-2014\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/107\/2015\/09\/back2-150x119.jpg 150w, https:\/\/courses.bowdoin.edu\/revealing-mediterranean-women-2014\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/107\/2015\/09\/back2-624x495.jpg 624w, https:\/\/courses.bowdoin.edu\/revealing-mediterranean-women-2014\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/107\/2015\/09\/back2.jpg 890w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<figcaption class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-8-33'>\n\t\t\t\t PABLO PICASSO (Spanish, 1881\u20131973)\n&#8211; Construction with Swallows, 1934\n\t\t\t\t<\/figcaption><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/courses.bowdoin.edu\/revealing-mediterranean-women-2014\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/107\/2015\/09\/back1.jpg'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/courses.bowdoin.edu\/revealing-mediterranean-women-2014\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/107\/2015\/09\/back1-225x300.jpg\" class=\"attachment-medium size-medium\" alt=\"PABLO PICASSO (Spanish, 1881\u20131973) - Head of a Girl, ca. 1955\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-8-32\" srcset=\"https:\/\/courses.bowdoin.edu\/revealing-mediterranean-women-2014\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/107\/2015\/09\/back1-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/courses.bowdoin.edu\/revealing-mediterranean-women-2014\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/107\/2015\/09\/back1-112x150.jpg 112w, https:\/\/courses.bowdoin.edu\/revealing-mediterranean-women-2014\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/107\/2015\/09\/back1-624x833.jpg 624w, https:\/\/courses.bowdoin.edu\/revealing-mediterranean-women-2014\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/107\/2015\/09\/back1.jpg 715w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<figcaption class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-8-32'>\n\t\t\t\t  PABLO PICASSO (Spanish, 1881\u20131973)\n&#8211; Head of a Girl, ca. 1955\n\t\t\t\t<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n<hr \/>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Classical representations of Mediterranean women from myth and history have been continually adapted and renewed over the centuries.
