You may think this Artwork looks strange—but it shows a real woman named Marie-Thérèse. She had a round face and straight hair, and she liked to sit quietly, reading. Pablo Picasso, who painted this picture, was very much in love with her. Among Picasso’s most celebrated likenesses of his lover Marie-Thérèse Walter, Woman with a Book balances sensuality and restraint, enclosing exuberant, thickly applied colour in a network of sinuous black lines. The composition pays homage to the Neoclassical master of line, Jean-Auguste-Dominique Ingres, whose work Picasso had admired since his youth, and whose Portrait of Madame Moitessier the Spanish painter had first encountered in 1921. Resting his model’s head on her hand, and replacing Madame Moitessier’s fan with the fluttering pages of a book, Picasso tapped into the eroticism latent beneath Ingres’s image of bourgeois respectability. The serene profile reflected in a mirror at right in Picasso’s portrait likewise references its Neoclassical precedent but may also constitute an abstract self-portrait.

Husband and wife successful mosaic artists, Mauri Aybar and Andrea Castiglione are collaborating to make this beautifully mesmerising collection. We design to awake & vibrate a mix of feelings every day of your life. As Spanish immigrants who landed in Australia in 2014, we integrated successfully into the Gold Coast and building industry and made it our love to share with locals our background in mosaic art. We wanted to alleviate the common building industry problem of trying to get something high quality, creative and unique in design and having to wait a long time for shape, quantity, colour, and design. We have now left our mark in Australia.
