A. Tassi - Homage to Picasso - The Acrobats

This work is part of a series in which the painter A. Tassi pays homage to his great masters by painting small mixed-media panels reproducing details from famous works. In the present painting, Tassi pays homage to Pablo Picasso by reproducing a detail from "The Family of Saltimbanques," a work created in 1905 and held at the National Gallery in Washington.

The master copy by A. Tassi fully adheres to the Picasso-inspired style associated with the Spanish artist's so-called "Blue Period." The work has a vaguely Symbolist feel, even in its chosen subject (an artist, a circus performer), which, in addition to representing a certain marginalized and derelict humanity, also expresses an unmistakable, mysterious melancholy. Formally, the character's symbolic aura is enhanced by a concise representation, executed with a bold line that empties out volumes and eliminates facial details. In this way, the subject takes on an iconic character, and the work can break away from a simple, contingent representation to take on broader, more hidden meanings. Chromatically, the cool tones typical of Picasso's "Blue Period" prevail.

A. Tassi, the artist who created this masterly copy, is known for his excellent painting technique. He practices very classical and traditional genres, especially landscapes. However, his excellent technique allows him to create perfect copies of the works of the great masters of the past.
