13846571 - NEW YORK, Pablo Picasso Painting 1901 Woman in profile at the Metropolitan Museum of Art 1000 Fifth Avenue and 82nd Street This painting belongs to a small group of pictures of extravagantly dressed women that evoke the Parisian demimonde of dance halls and brothels. The electric palette and broad dabs of paint relate it to other works that Picasso painted in Madrid in spring 1901, in anticipation of his upcoming show at the Galerie Vollard in Paris.
