Seated Woman is a work that reveals a remarkable compositional balance and a skillful calibration of shapes and chromatic tones, in perfect line with the cubist phrasing that characterizes Picasso's production from the late thirties to the mid-fifties. The use of geometric linearity and two-dimensionality refers to the dramatic model of Guernica. The woman portrayed is Françoise Gilot, the artist's companion from 1944 to 1953.
