In 1917, Italy presented Pablo Picasso (1881-1973) with the opportunity to inaugurate a new artistic stage in which Cubism would survive and be modified, while at the same time, the elements of Ingresque classicism would take place. Working during this Italian stay for the Ballets Russeson the curtain and costumes for the work Parade, he was able to perfect his knowledge of the tradition of the Commedia dell'Arteand take up again the iconography of Harlequin. In Rome, he visited and appreciated the treasures of the city, such as the illuminated Colosseum or the Sistine Chapel and, during his walks in Campania, he was captivated by the frescoes and ruins of Pompeii and Herculaneum, which inspired a whole series of drawings. In addition to classical monuments and Renaissance masterpieces, he found in some postcards of a flower seller in traditional costume the starting point to elaborate the image of the Italian woman as a sample of the learning acquired in this country. It will be in the Città Eternawhere he will meet his future wife, the ballerina Olga Khokhlova, with whom he will begin a new personal stage.
