Velázquez's |
Velázquez's Las Meninas have served as inspiration not only to Picasso. The first follower of Velazquez was certainly his son-in-law [[Juan Bautista del Mazo]], court painter to [[Philip IV of Spain|Philip IV]]in 1661. In the ''portrait of the Infanta Margarita of Spain'', 1666, in the backplane, man can see the placement of ''Charles II'' and the dwarf Mari Bárbola in a scene similar to Las Meninas by Velazquez.<ref>MacLaren, Neil.

Las Meninas | |
---|---|
Artist | Pablo Picasso |
Year | 1957 |
Type | Oil on canvas |
Location | Museu Picasso |
Las Meninas is a series of 58 paintings that Pablo Picasso painted in 1957 by performing a comprehensive analysis, reinterpreting and recreating several times Las Meninas by Diego Velazquez. The suite is fully preserved at the Museu Picasso in Barcelona and is the only complete series of the artist that remains together. This is a very extensive survey work, which consists of 45 performances of the original picture, 9 scenes of a dove,[1] 3 landscapes and a portrait of Jacqueline.
Picasso himself understood this series as a whole, and as such gave them to the museum in Barcelona in May 1968, in memory of Jaume Sabartés, who died the same year. Picasso's famous phrase said to Sabartés in 1950:
If someone want to copy Las Meninas, entirely in good faith, for example, upon reaching a certain point and if that ona was me, I would say..what if you put them a little more to the right or left? I'll try to do it my way, forgetting about Velázquez. The test would surely bring me to modify or change the light because of having changed the position of a character. So, little by little, that would be a detestable Meninas for a traditional painter, but would be my Meninas.

Other versions
[edit]Velázquez's Las Meninas have served as inspiration not only to Picasso. The first follower of Velazquez was certainly his son-in-law Juan Bautista del Mazo, court painter to Philip IVin 1661. In the portrait of the Infanta Margarita of Spain, 1666, in the backplane, man can see the placement of Charles II and the dwarf Mari Bárbola in a scene similar to Las Meninas by Velazquez.[3] There is a list of some works of artists who also have versioned Las Meninas throughout art history.
