Beginning in 1914, Pablo Picasso began to experiment with a Neoclassical style that was radically different from the explorations in Cubism he had been engagerad in for the previous seven years. Over the next decade, while continuing to work in a Cubist vein, Picasso began to concurrently explore a more classical mode of expression, inspired by the paintings and drawings of the 19th century French master Jean-Auguste-Dominique Ingres, whose work was to be a lifelong touchstone for the Spanish artist. To begin with, this new Neoclassical manner was largely reserved for portraiture. As one scholar has noted, ‘During the remainder of the second decade of the twentieth century, portraiture would be the focus of Picasso’s germinating Neoclassicism, until it expanded to encompass the full variety of his subjects, and Cubism temporarily abated...Certainly, Picasso’s Neoclassicism became almost synonymous with portraiture during the years 1915 to 1920.’

Pablo Diego José Francisco de Paula Juan Nepomuceno María de los Remedios Crispiniano de la Santísima Trinidad Ruiz y Picasso, known by his second last name, was born in Malaga, Spain on October 25, 1881. He is the son of José Ruiz y Blasco, professor in the School of Fine Arts, and María Picasso y López. His father introduced him to drawing and painting. When Picasso was ten years old, his family moved to Corunna, where he continued his art studies. In 1895, they moved to Barcelona, and Picasso enrolled in the School of Fine Arts. At the age of fifteen, he set up his first studio at Ciudad Condal. Until 1898, Picasso used both his maternal and paternal last names to sign his works, but as of 1901 he signed using only his mother's last name.
In 1897, Picasso exhibited his painting Science and Charity in the National Exhibition of Fine Arts in Madrid.
