Women Running on the Beach is one of my favorites by Picasso but I've also found Girl Before a Mirror interesting because, it's like the quote you posted... are we to paint what we see or what's behind it? She's obviously standing before a mirror as the title suggests but the mirror doesn't reflect the girl exactly as how she is. So, one might wonder... did Picasso paint her as he saw her and her reflection as how he may have seen what was behind the physical or maybe even as how she possibly saw herself?
