La Vie (painting)
''La Vie'' (Zervos I 179) is an oil painting by Pablo Picasso, produced in 1903 during his Blue Period. Scholars agree, that it is one of the most important works Picasso ever created.
== Description and History ==
''La Vie'' was painted in Barcelona in May 1903. It measured 6 feet tall and 4 feet wide and portrayed two pairs of people, a naked couple confronting a mother bearing a child in her arms.〔 In the background of the room, apparently a studio, there are two paintings within the painting, the upper one showing a crouching and embracing nude couple, the lower one showing a lonesome crouching nude person very similar to ''Sorrow'' by Vincent Van Gogh. With this Picasso repainted another motif, a birdsman who attacks a reclining naked woman, traces of which are visible to the naked eye.

It was painted at a time when Picasso was having no financial success. In contrast, the new painting sold only a month after it was finished, to a French art dealer, Jean Saint Gaudens. The sale was reported in the Barcelona newspaper, ''Liberal''.〔 With ''La Vie'' Picasso repainted the canvas of ''The derniers Moments'' from 1899, a painting that he had presented at the Paris International Exhibition 1900.〔Carsten Peter Warncke, Pablo Picasso 1881-1973.

The painting was given by the Hanna fund to the Cleveland Museum of Art, Ohio in 1945 and is in their permanent collection.〔
