WOMEN PORTRAITS

2º ESO

Woman With book This picture was painting in 1973 by

the painter Pablo Picasso.

The style of this picture is cubism, and

it is in the Norton Simon museum, in Pasadena,

CA (USA).

The woman of the picture is a middle aged

woman. I think she is 30 years old with long

straight hair and she is good looking. Her

eyes are very nice, her nose is very big but

her mouth is very small. She is a beautiful

woman. She isn’t very tall so she is medium

height and she is plump. The woman is very

quiet and very patient too. She loves silence

to read.

In the picture there is a middle aged

woman sitting on an armchair. She is

reading a book and she is leaning on her

right hand. She is wearing a long dress of

many colors (blue, white, violet, yellow…)

and a yellow and red necklace. Her

straight hair is green and white.

She is in a room with a mirror on the

purple wall.

I like this picture because I love cubism. I

think cubism is another way to see the

world. I also like it because it has got a lot

of colours.

MARGUERTITE DEGASThis is the portrait of Margherite Degas. Edgar Degas

painted this picture in 1860.

Its style is realism. It’s in the Museum of Orsay in París.It

is 80x54cm.

This woman looks a sad, good person because her face

is showing kindness.

Her face is as pretty as a flower, and her skin is as soft

as cotton. She has got long straight hair. She has got it

up in a bun. It is darker than the coal. Her eyes are as

brown as the land and her eyebrows are as fine as

paper. Her nose is as small as a snowflake. Her lips are

as soft as a candy, and her cheeks are round as a circle.

She’s wearing a beautiful dress,it’s a white as snow, and

a black shawl as oil, a pink cloth as a Barbie, a white

flowers as a rabbit in the head.

I like this portrait because it has got a lot of colours and

a lot of imagination.

A BAR AT THE FOLIES- BERGÈRE

It was painted by Édouard Manet in 1882. Its

style is impresionism. This painting is in

London, in the Courtauld Gallery. It is 96cm x

130cm.

This woman has got straight brown hair like the

wood. Her beautiful face is as red as a rose and

her big nose is quite long. Her lips are redder

than cherries.

She wears a black and white dress, and her soft

clothes are more delicate than a flower.

There is a vase of roses in the center. She is in

a bar, with a lot of bottles. Behind her, there´s a

mirror, and there are a lot of people and lights.

I like this painting because it´s very realistic,

and because there are a lot of colors in it. It´s a

very beautiful painting, and it´s very important

and famous .

EUGENIA PRIMAVESIby Gustav Klimt

 This is the portrait of

Eugenia Primavesi. Klimt painted this picture in 1913. Its style is Art Nouveau but it is in a private collection so you cannot watch it in a museum. It is 140cm x 84cm. This woman looks a calm, good person because she has got a very deep look. Her face is prettier than a rose and her skin is as white as the snow. She has got short wavy hair. She has got it up in a bun. It is darker than the nigh. Her bulging green eyes are as light as meadows. Her eyebrows are thin and long.

She’s got very nice small ears.Her nose is small too and it is turned- up, but I don´t like it very much.

Her lips are as red as cherries and her cheeks are as pink as flowers.

She’s wearing a colourful dress. It is as flowery as the spring.

We like this portrait because it has got a lot of bright colours and we feel happy when we see the painting.

BUGATTITamara Lempika painted this self

portrait in 1929.

Its style is modernism and it´s in a private collection.

Her fair hair is as yellow as the sun. Her eyelashes are as long

as a stream. Her lips are as red as strawberries.

Her skin is as soft as cotton. Her look is as seductive as a pretty

woman.

She has got a long grey scarf around her

neck. It is as grey as aluminiun. She is

wearing a helmet. It is as grey as silver.

Her leather gloves are light brown.

Tamara is in a car, in a green Bugatti. The

car is as green as an emerald. The door

handle is little and metal.

I like this picture because of the colours and

because of her look too.

I think that it ‘s the best painting ever.
