In 1957, Pablo Picasso undertook an extraordinary reinterpretation of Diego Velázquez’s 17th-century masterpiece Las Meninas. Over the course of just a few months, he produced 58 paintings that deconstructed and reimagined the iconic scene. Using his own visual language—fragmented forms, bold colors, and shifting perspectives—Picasso transformed Velázquez’s royal court into a modern meditation on perception, power, and the act of painting itself. Far from a simple homage, the series is both a tribute to the Spanish Golden Age and a radical exploration of how tradition can be reinvented. Today, the Las Meninas cycle stands as one of Picasso’s most significant achievements of his late career and a landmark in the dialogue between past and present in art history.
