About the piece
Painted in 1917, this work by María Blanchard is a masterclass in Synthetic Cubism. The subject—a woman with a guitar—is transformed into a rhythmic arrangement of geometric planes, using a restrained palette of terracotta, deep charcoal, and ochre to create a sense of architectural depth and modernist elegance.
