Françoise Gilot - Self-portrait at Work - 1946.
At 21, Gilot met Pablo Picasso, then 61. Picasso first saw Gilot in a restaurant in the spring of 1943, during the German occupation of France. Picasso painted La femme-fleur, and then his old friend Henri Matisse, who liked Gilot, announced that he would create a portrait of her, in which her body would be pale blue and her hair leaf green.
From 1943 to 1953, Gilot was the partner and artistic muse of Pablo Picasso, with whom she had two children, Claude and Paloma.
In 1969, Gilot was introduced to the American polio vaccine pioneer Jonas Salk. Their shared appreciation of architecture led to a brief courtship and a 1970 wedding in Paris. During their marriage, which lasted until Salk's death in 1995, the couple lived apart for half of every year as Gilot continued to paint in New York City, La Jolla, and Paris.
Once asked what it was in her that attracted such outstanding men, Gilot responded: "I think I am just as interesting as they. Lions mate with lions. They don't mate with mice."

Pablo Picasso - Portrait of Françoise Gilot -"Femme assise en costume vert" - (Woman sitting in green suit) - 1953
Tumblr media
Her memoir first began to dismantle the glorious Picasso legend—more than hinting at his stupefying misogyny and obsessive envy of Matisse’s unflagging invention. She was the only women who ever left Picasso & he tried to ruin her career.
Tumblr media
Of Picasso she said: “He did not destroy me because I was of the stuff that cannot be destroyed. I do not need another consciousness to define my own.”

Gustave Caillebotte (1848-1894) "Man at His Bath" (1884) Oil on canvas Impressionism Located in the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, Massachusetts, United States This painting (measuring at 144.8 x 114.3 cm (57 x 45 in.)) presents an unusually intimate scene from everyday life at the grand scale once reserved for formal history subjects. The tin tub and discarded nightshirt at right, along with the clothing draped neatly upon the chair and the emphatically contemporary boots, make this man less nude in a classical sense than frankly naked. The muscular tension, disheveled hair, and wet footprints on the parquet indicate the physicality of an actual body at work—having just left the bath and now vigorously toweling off—rather than an idealized body undertaking an imagined heroic action. Positioned at close proximity to the viewer—this most private of moments made public—this man, back turned and head bowed, nevertheless remains decidedly separate.
