Weeping Woman, 1937 by Pablo Picasso, Tate Gallery, London.

Picasso did a series of "Weeping Women" where their faces and emotions are broken-up by grief and the cubist style of creating an image out of a series of planes.

Although I think this portrayal is hideous, I wonder did he use the green and yellow to portray jealousy and biliousness? She seems more angry than grieved. Good use of color.
