Fig. 1
Taken
in raking
light to
emphasize the topography
of the paint, this
detail illustrates
that during
the first campaign the thick paint retains
the shape and texture
of the brushstroke
on the Iberian-style
heads.

Fig.
2
This
detail illustrates Picasso's use of a thick
paint during the final campaign. The shape and
texture of these brushstrokes, while achieving
a very different effect, remains close to those
in the first campaign illustrated in Fig. 1.

In
this detail of Fig. 2, note how the dry, impastoed
paint skips along the surface and the sure handling
of the line of the brushstroke.
