A mysterious dog
Recently, a museum uncovered a little dog hidden in early Picasso painting. 1 (reveal) during a
technical analysis of the Spanish artist’s painting “Le Moulin de la Galette” ahead of an exhibition
of his early works, the image of a charming dog has attracted a lot of attention.
Opened at the Guggenheim on Friday, the new show “Young Picasso in Paris” includes 10 paintings
and drawings made by Picasso upon his arrival in the French capital in 1900. “Le Moulin de la
Galette” 2 (describe) a lively scene at a famous Parisian dance hall also painted by other artists. A
sea of couples are seen dancing in fine hats, painted in quick brushwork, with three figures 3 (seat)
at a table in the foreground.
Museum experts were able to generate an image of what the dog originally looked like using X-ray
scanning, 4 imaging technique that figures out the chemical elements in a painting, according to the
Guggenheim’s senior paintings expert, Julie Barten.
“It was interesting to me that he quickly painted over this dog, 5 would have been a rather amazing
aspect of this painting,” Barten said in a phone call.
The museum noted that the dog 6 (wear) a red bow bears a close similarity to a Cavalier King
Charles spaniel. Though Barten cannot say for certain 7 Picasso opted to remove the dog from the
scene, she suggested that the painter might have considered its lively face and attractive bow too
distracting.
Covering up the dog allows viewers 8 (look) more carefully at all of these other wonderful figures
in the composition and experience the space in different ways.
Picasso made other changes to the work, including 9 (switch) the gender presentations of a dancing
couple and painting out an empty chair, according to the study. Modifying paintings later became
part of Picasso’s regular practice, Barten said, adding that now “Le Moulin de la Galette” 10
(consider) one of the earliest examples of this.
