The miniature dimensions of Two Figures contrast with the heroic massiveness of its subjects, who recline on a beach. Picasso may have painted this scene while staying with his family at the seaside town of Fontainebleau. At the time, he was exploring the expressive qualities of classical art, and the figures' monumentality probably traces to statuary and frescoes that he had studied in Italy. Yet he transformed his sources through a uniquely personal interpretation.
