By
Published on
Picasso painted almost entirely in blues and blue-greens from 1901 to 1904, after his friend Carles Casagemas killed himself in a Paris café in February 1901. This deep petrol teal suits the greener side of that palette, and one Blue Period canvas, La Gommeuse, sold at Sotheby’s New York on Nov. 5, 2015, for $67.45 million, a record for the period.
