Picasso tried to
date all his works.
Anyone with the catalogs can see examples of all stages of finishing.
I wrote that he used the very advanced technique
which I call the seventh stage of decoration.
Later, I
discovered that "Seurat's Grand Judd" could be shown in the more advanced eighth
stage model.
The work in 1932
Picasso must have reached the eighth stage.

Work 32-042 on the left has obviously well sculptural balance effect.
Let's take up the
model I wrote before.
Picasso 32-042 scaled model
The above
illustration shows that
A)
The
use of scale: limited number of circles for the arcs.
B)
the circles
are bundled at several points.
Make a unit using the vertical and horizontal diameters of the circle and
the outer frame.

It is hard to
notice that the lines have a geometric structure which produces an artistic
effect.
Da Vinci's
painting has the same design as Raphael, but it is difficult to understand.
Da Vinci's

Da Vinci was
interested in reproducing the appearance of nature, so
he often blurred
the boundaries.
This technique is
a photographic technique that has nothing to do with pure art.
Since the utility
of Renaissance paintings was mainly anecdotes,
This blurring
method was taken up by other painters to bring out the truth.
Da Vinci's Mona
Lisa became more famous than any of Raphael's paintings
Rubens' formal
importance is ignored.
Looking at the pictures
of Cezanne's mundane motifs,
Picasso realized that the essence of art was a line.
This is modern
art in a formal sense.
