Minotaur Caressing a Sleeping Woman

1933
Pablo Ruiz y Picasso (Spanish, 1881–1973) Printed by Roger Lacourière (French, 1892–1966)
The etchings of the Vollard Suite are distinguished by Picasso’s poetic interplay of line and tone to rephrase themes of attraction, voyeurism, art making, and autobiographical allegories of the mythical Minotaur.
