Picasso’s Musketeer and Odalisque-Medusa captures his late style, where invention and history collide. The musketeer, a nod to the Old Masters, stands beside an odalisque with a Medusa-like edge, merging strength, desire, and defiance. Created during a period of reflection on power and mortality, the work radiates energy and theatrical tension, revealing an artist still fearless in his pursuit of reinvention.
