Did Picasso Paint This in a Day? | TateShots

- Tate’s conservation team investigate whether Picasso completed his painting 'Nude in a Red Armchair' in a day.
The back of the canvas of this Picasso painting is inscribed with the words ’Boisgeloup 27 Juillet 1932’ leaving some experts to question whether the painting was completed in a day. In Tate’s conservation lab the team examined the painting and made some interesting discoveries about Picasso’s technique and use of paint.
This work itself belongs to the remarkable sequence of portraits that Picasso made of Marie-Thérèse Walter at his country property at Boisgeloup. Marie-Thérèse is presented here - as in most of her portraits - as a series of sensuous curves. Even the scrolling arms of the chair have been heightened and exaggerated to echo the rounded forms of her body. The face is a double or metamorphic image: the right side can also be seen as the face of a lover in profile, kissing her on the lips.

Very interesting facts about this work of Picasso! Awesome, Thanks for sharing!
Great thing about this painting is the subtle details. I didn't notice he added eyelids and casting shadows onto the lips until the camera zoomed in
TATE HAS THE BEST CONTENT EVER.... THANK YOU ALL FOR THESE AMAZING VIDOES!
awesome content, thank you 😊
How could he not paint a picture in one day? That's why he was famous because he could paint a masterpiece so quick. Is it really a mystery? You see how fast he drew the chicken head?
Egzzactly. It is so simple of a painting. I could copy it in a day.
very interesting video! More than likely this painting was painted within a day. It is a masterpiece, very confident, and sensual. There's definitely an ease in how Picasso handled the paint. The color palette gives it a wonderful mystique.
Agree
Excellent!
not all master pieces take long, if the flow was right he could have squeezed this out in an hour. so yes the legend did paint this in a day.
So what if it took a day? it is quite possible for a simple image like that... allaprima anyone?... It's not like he was painting a battle or religious scene from olden times
Nonsense this isnt it . What difference does it make if he did paint it in a day? Picasso was a master of all the mediums he used, by this time 1932 he had been working as an artist more or less every day for over 30 years, he knew how to do things. I almost wrote , ' he knew what he was doing' but one of his great quotes was " If you know exactly what yourre going to do, what is the point of doing it ? " Picasso also worked from memory and had a phenominal pictorial memory so rarely had people to pose. And if you can call old newspapers or tins a 'palette' so be it !
100%
Please add a protective backing when conservation done?
1:47 my fav shot from tate.
Of course he made it in one day, it’s Picasso who we are talking about.
It is normal to Picasso finish this kind of painting in one day only. Datails require time, color mixing requires time. But Picasso style doesn't require this kind of detail's. He paint a nose with one brush stroke only, and so an eye, mouth.
when you have collectors that support the artist view it wouldnt surprise me that this painting could be done in less than two hours and not one day.
I suggest you should try to do it in a day - you ignorant person!
@@johnellis955 I could do it in 1 hour, you heard me. Only my version would have 4 finder and a thumb, instead of 6 digits. I would of course do bigger knockers... To give it balance. John, if you saw it in a gallery, you would curse me and the other people in the room because you could not touch yourself as you looked upon it, and that I had given you such guilty desire.
magnificennnt
THE Pablo Picasso Masterpiece!!! 👏👏👏👏
This is a nice painting but I don't understand why its so amazing that it took one day. I mean it looks like it took a day. Whats the big deal?
Exactly.
MARTIAN ATTACK the money..
you should make a video remaking this painting
reuel joshua why should he?
@@reuelchinthala HEY dip stick brain....i COULD MAKE THIS JUNK IN A DAY....but you wouldnt like it cause my name isnt picasso...get it?
Lot of people who think painting a sunset makes you an artist commenting about how bad Picasso is
keli 20.30 I believe art is a turd on a stick. What do you have to say to that?
@keli 20.30 lol. maybe you will grow out of this childish phase where you think you know things or maybe you never will and you'll be on your death bed whispering color relationships to yourself repeatedly. im done with this conversation loser
It's a great painting, and yes, I believe he painted that, and many others in one day. He probably just let his talent flow as he was painting.
He lived in a time when cameras and films started to become a mass production tool. Back in the day the only way to preserve something of that age and maintaining its looks over time was paintings. By the 1900s the genius of Picasso noticed that hiperrealism was no longer required, framing a view was now possible with a camera so he started the movement of cubism, trying to replicate the 3d view in a 2d plane. That is what makes him so especial. Just because now we have morons creating bullshit doesnt mean that the starting idea of moder art wasnt good.
Lol
I really think cubism was a great idea to survive the dawn of modern equipments like cameras but aesthetically it looks like a crap ability to add depth dimension in a 2d plane was really the appeal of the paintings but drawing 2d pictures in 2d plane doesn't seem special
😹😹😹🐣
Dude, you literally comment this in every Picasso related video. Don't you have something new?!
paramesh waran lmao
STEP AWAY FROM THE MICROSCOPE!
yes!!! you can just feel it it doesn't need to be cut apart and explained. they probably made love and drank a bottle of wine and maybe smoked a little opium and laughed and told jokes. it's free, it should be cut apart like a frog splayed to a card.
best artist ever
My best selling paintings are all painted in a day. Usually 3-6 hours. I mean - I get $600-1500. They don't sell for 10's of thousands.
عفوية اللمسة هو صدق الاحساس (سر مايميز الفنان عن ... ؟)
I dont believe it took a day . I believe it took an hour.
I enjoy Picasso's work and don't think exquisite detail is the measure of a painting's quality, but the average life studies class squeezes more in the way of shading and detail into just a few hours. The experts marvelling like it's The Arnolfini Marriage crack me up - Bob Ross knocked out two in an hour.
Easily painted in 1 day. I've finished Van Gogh copies in 1 day.
lol
@@cinereus3601 ... ? ... 🤔
I sure do wish that Picasso could have done abstracts that one could recognize.
German painting analysts looking at a Picasso, just remember that everytime to magnify something you have to contextualize the perspective accordingly in relation to relativity.
Ça, c'est très joli.
Masterpiece so excited him painting without law of idea
Why it's a Masterpiece ? What's so special about it ?
Modern art is bs

I wouldn't say it's a masterpiece, it's a good painting.
Nothing,this was just another one of his daily throwaways, it's the bullshit marketing trying to hype up their collection.
It was done by a giant of 20th century art. Don't forget this was made in 1932! It looks like it was painted by today's standards so he was ahead of his time with alot of his styles he invented many including cubism and collage. He also helped change modern art. He could paint realistic as well so it's even more impressive to see his many styles ,he was a great talent a genius
one day or one hour?
you guys are unbelievable.
Nikhil Gundesha they are trying to make others believe.
When the conservationist woman was wildly gesticulating, I kept on worrying that she'd hit the painting! Lol
Very possible i myself paint in a style quite like picasso and if the insperation and the energy is right i can easily paint a few works in one day ,still dont no why these leople wont to annalise paintings,just stand back and enjoy what your looking at
Vds. Saben que las mejores pinturas, gravados, esculturas etc. Que creo Picasso en sus últimos años fueron encontradasen su taller después de muerto. Vds., lo creen, también...
Picasso. The most admired painter and the least imitated.
Pedro Menchén películas francesas subtituladas en español
He's been the MOST imitated, except virtually all those wanna-be's are already forgotten.
Lad S. And he is the most over rated.
Basquiat carried the idea further.....Not better, not as a copy, & certainly with other influence. But in my opinion he was the last to stand on Picasso’s shoulders.
@@friedricengravy6646 If there was not Picasso... Basquiat might become Picasso
Unlike the Renaissance Master's who might have taken days, months for a single Painting, Picasso use to work spontaneously, he was much interested in depicting the force of the emotion in the painting rather than the details
The guernika took him 3 months
Alla Prima method goes back to the baroque
Many artists create art in less than one day. Are they kidding? Paintings should be analyzed by Painters.
I would have loved to see what he would have done with digital.
no no no i can explain the naked woman right. is in an red armchair thats what makes it a masterpiece guys you gotto believe me
"very young woman". she was 16-17 while Picasso was in his early 30s.
SirManDudeGuy1 Not even in his early 30s he was actually very old..
yeah kind of a porn relationship. old nasty bastard fucks teen.
Alexander Petrohv Picasso blonde could have chosen any young Paris dude who had hair. Its like girls today going after the top 20% of men. Its all about status and utility men offer.
Ok, the blue glove close up is a wee bit scary....
In a day one erotic day the painter was able to paint the love and desire in the most original way.
I think i have one lost picasso painting , can i have Mr. Achim Borchadt Hume email please . I can send pictures and info.tks .
Was it a Picasso?
Inform us
Who's gone raving mad here then.
Probably not. He had several in progress at all times and moved from one to the other. This came from his son Claude.
That guy was smoking some serious shit🤔
He probably did do it in one day, but I definitely wouldn't call this a "masterpiece", Picasso painted much better pictures than this.
Most of Picasso's works I have seen look honest, but this one it's a little kitschy.
We dont know if he tried different versions of this painting. Days of thinking out the picture and composition without working with his brushes. When he did this special parning it maybe took one day but Picasso maybe knew precisely what he wanted the painting to look like. With his experience he could do it quickly when the intellectual process was finished, I think.
Picasso has thought me since a kid.How to let go of the hands and let Art flow freely.Now I am on a quest against time.
Todos hablan basura. Pero, no define lógicamente porque esas pinturas son una supuesta obra arte.
DO NOT LEAVE COMMENTS ON MY PERSONAL. CAROL KING
The best painter and artist of the twentieth century. A gifted child prodigy.
the juxtaposition of the conservator and the painting is a remarkable
element
Pablo Picasso = the masses are assess 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Now, c’mon.. if you’d saw this canvas on the trash there is no way any of you would seize it if you didnt know it was a Picasso.
so?
reuel joshua so what?
@@reuelchinthala so it proves you are a fraud
explanation kills art.
Marketing
In a day? It´s simple enough to do in an hour or so. It´s just a few shapes. The proportions don´t matter, it´s not very detailed, only 2d, no shadows, so yeah, that must´ve been pretty quick. It´s just not very good. Just look at those hands. I guess most children can produce something similar. Pablo Picasso could paint. He made some really nice paintings. Maybe he just had a bad day when painting this one or didn´t want to put any effort into it.
I liked freeze framing the tests to see the pigments he used. Though to Picasso they were probably just colours and white was just white with little interest as to the long term effects. If he was alive and had painted this today, he'd probably be using acrylics instead of oils, and probably right to do so.
When picasso was old acrylics where already a thing. For some reasons though he never used them unlike Miro. The same for francis bacon he could have used acrylics but he didn't
@@clarencedimaria old dog.... from what I Red he often used cheap wall paints etc for many of the paintings and this is why many of his paintings are in quite a bad shape now.
@@handznet yes i remember reading the same thing! He used ripolin’s walls paintings
Of course it was painted in one day...it’s as rough as guts...probably finished it before lunch.
I walked out the back of the Royal Academy in London once into a private gallery, there were 4-5 Picasso’s and they were as rough as guts as well and basicly just bad paintings
Surprised that it was painted in one day !? Come on. It’s a quick sketch. It’s not an old master painted with multiple layers and glazes.
*All the artworks should have the day of start and the finish date* Some of the masterworks needed a lot of time and other just a few hours. That fact talk about the ability of the artist
Looks like a three-way.
Hey that’s mine, I painted this today, I am Dali😂😂😂
it's boring to let your painting dry before adding extra layers, one sitting is all a proper painting should take
God bless acrylics
Soooooo much bullshit.. Yet they would say " because you can't understand.. ".. The whole thing looks like it was done in an hour or so forget a freaking day. It is art, surrealism is a thing we get it but checking the layers of color, how did he paint it.. Give the brush to your 5 yo, and watch him paint, YEAH THAT IS EXACTLY HOW PICASSO PAINTED IT!! look at the carving on the eye.. how the hell are you impressed by that? His composition matters, the elements he bring together and how he puts it together as an idea.. all that matters but the actual painting side of the story.. 0 skills what so ever.
I doubt he came back to many piece, it was right here and right now and move on to the next thing!
4:24 - I like that more than the actual painting. : - |
You are a person ofnthe 21th century
Most of my life I lived in the twentieth century.
So u mean nobody can draw this?
Ya from imagination
Vishvesh Tadsare But the same exact thing can be said about anything. If I drew a stick figure, you wouldn’t be able to exactly replicate it. So I guess my stick figure is just as special as this is.
Link You could somewhat paint the same image in a day if you tried. But that is like playing a song by Nirvana and saying: I am exactly like Kurt Cobain.
master piece??
why?
cause some society says so?...i dont think this is great art...and i think anyone can do it...in fact..the people here rapturing over it...wouldnt know art from finger painting if they didnt know the artists name
nobody cares about what you 'think'.
Picasso had as many masterpieces as anyone, but this is some of his worst work.
Picasso painted a series of "Musketeers" in the late 1960s when he was a very old man. I have seen a film of art "experts" raving about these paintings. Check them out and see what you think??
No, no one can do it. Try a large painting like this and you'll find it's difficult. You will not finish in a day and if you do, even you will notice how bad yours will be. Please don't respond until you tried it. But you won't because you can't.
picasso is SOOO overrated.
This isn’t his best work. If you heard the absolute worst soundbite of the Beatles playing you wouldn’t say the Beatles suck, right?
@@lordbunbury i dont think this is his best but he is absolutely not overrated
What the fk is this even me can paint this 😁😂 in one day
You could somewhat paint the same image in a day if you tried. But that is like playing a song by Nirvana and saying: I am exactly like Kurt Cobain.
But you didn’t!
Come on, it wouldn't take more than 1 hour to paint that thing.
Fabrizio Aldonne that is why he produced so much work.
SirManDudeGuy1 yeah.
How come all of this channel's videos has the dumbest comments I will never know
+FaCu aRoYo What's dumb about my comment?
it's not a 1hr painting fabrizio, even if it did take him 1 hr to make it, it took him a life time to be able to paint like that, that's more hours of painting and exploring than you could imagine. 1 hr of painting from a master is worth more than over a decade of time spent painting from a painter of less talent or freedom.
Yea I paint rapidly so that’s mine,😂
I love Picasso. Sloppy work...
Wow, his painting was almost as good as his handwriting
I'm a big fan of Picasso but this one is definitely not a masterpiece!
Looks like he could of painted that in 20 minutes
I could paint that in ten minutes
You could somewhat paint the same image in a day if you tried. But that is like playing a song by Nirvana and saying: I am exactly like Kurt Cobain.
Plummy.
Modern art. The biggest con in the art world ever.
Definitely not a masterpiece. If another artist had signed this piece it would be art school garbage
Do it then. Surpass him.
@@AkakaDomenjer I can't surpass *him*. He's just too good... But I think I've made things better than this particular painting.
I'm wondering now whether Picasso himself actually like this one or not. Often artists have different tastes than the critics and general public. For example, Van Gogh considered his Starry Night painting to be mediocre and forgettable. I don't disagree, it pales in comparison to a lot of his other paintings.
Casagrande, that is right. Nobody can surpass Picasso. He is the greatest painter ever. Out of many many reasons. This particular painting is masterpiece also out of many many reasons. I look at the art with art elements. This painting has everything. And as the cherry on top, his love towards a woman is visible. You can't paint woman good if you don't know their nature. He did know the woman. And he did love woman, it's visible. Whoever wants to argue about this can take a walk. Myself as a painter can tell you that yes, we do like some works more than others. But this doesn't mean they are not masterpieces. Talking about him.
People should stop criticizing and take a look at art. The way he painted was the highest form of painting possible. He managed not to destroy the painting while destroying it. And still, keep decorative elements with very courageous use of colors and always delivers message"joy of life."
It's absolute damage, that he was alive long enough to deliver his opinions and words, but art World rather trashed him. Particularly his last years, when he was the most powerful as self-expression artist ever.
@@AkakaDomenjer you can say that about every childs painting if u wanna get something out of it. some hype ass bullshit
Not one of his strongest ,too sugary .
Picasso is overrated i guess...
This artsy fartsy pretentious speculative interpretation makes me nauseously laugh! 😏
