Catalogue raisonné Bloch 1430 Pablo Picasso’s Le cocu couronné de fleurs (The Husband Crowned with Flowers) combines a mythologically charged figural motif with the artist’s distinctive visual language. The title refers to the “cuckold,” here depicted ironically as being “crowned,” a simultaneously grotesque and humorous inversion of honor and humiliation. In his late graphic work, Picasso condenses narrative, erotic, and symbolic elements with great spontaneity and assured linearity into an immediate and highly expressive pictorial invention.
