Picasso’s “Les Demoiselles d’Avignon” marks a revolutionary shift in the representation of the

human form. This seminal work deconstructs traditional perspectives, presenting the figures with

distorted features and angular forms. It serves as a precursor to the Cubist movement,

challenging conventional notions of beauty and artistic representation.
