Girl Before a Mirror. Pablo Picasso (1881-1973)
The fascination of this picture lies not only in its rich, stained-glass colors and decorative pattern of lozenges, circles, and stripes, but also in its psychological implications, which have given rise to a host of interpretations. Certainly, we have here no realistic, objective representation of a young girl engaged in the banal act of contemplating her own reflection. The face of the "real" girl at the left is young an rather expressionless; her features are those of Marie-Thérèse Walter, with whom Picasso had recently begun a liaison, and whom he frequently represented at this time. By contrast, the face reflected in the mirror seems older, and, with its unfathomable stare, parted lips, and hawklike nose, at once more anxious, aggressive, and inscrutable. It suggests a mysterious aspect of the girl's personality-as she is, or as she may become.
The body of the girl has been described as "simultaneously clothed, nude, and X-rayed." The striping of her bathing costume is transformed, at the right, into a diagrammatic rib cage. Her intense awareness of her own sexuality is manifest in the emphasis on rounded breasts and the bulging belly enclosing a circular womb.
This picture is a modern re-creation of a traditional Vanity image, in which a woman gazing into a mirror sees herself reflected as a death's head. It has also been noted that the looking glass is of a type called in France "psyché"-the Greek word for soul. It thus relates to a popular belief that a mirror has magic properties and can reflect the inner self, rather than the outward likeness of the person who peers into it.

 ProbableMENTE el versículo BÁSICA Y FUNDAMENTALMENTE más PSICOANALÍTICO expresado por Jesús, según los evangelios, sea Juan 14:1.
Y ahora revisando el libro de texto que me dieron en la Academia de la Fuerza Aérea DESCUBRO la profundidad y genialidad de los que estaban involucrados con la misión de sentar las bases formativas en mí para poder cumplir con lo que venía. Es obvio que, con sus palabras, Jesús en este versículo, lo que busca es convocar, pero convocar para acción SALVÍFICA no para fines políticos mundanos, sin intimidar o dictar. Y esto requiere ESENCIALMENTE elicitar desde el interior o sea MOTIVAR y la MOTIVACIÓN es de primerísima entrada de naturaleza PSICOLÓGICA!
Por eso el primer párrafo de los autores del texto lo expresa bien así:
-"Let us begin by agreeing that people are inquisitve, that there may be no human motive more powerful and pervasive than trying to make sense of things we do not understand."  
Y precisamente tiene todo el sentido cabal que Jesús pida INSTROSPECCIÓN de manera implícita, porque eso es lo que es, introspección, pedir que crean en Él.
La portada de mi libro de texto de Psicología para el curso en la Academia de la Fuerza Aérea en Colorado Springs tiene la pintura famosa de Pablo Picasso ocupando toda la tapa y la contratapa sobre FONDO NEGRO!!🤔
y en el inicio un recuadro que transcribo a continuación:

Prov.27:6

Painting Flowers was painted by Pablo Picasso in 1901. This was the first work by Pablo Picasso to be bought by the Tate Gallery. It was acquired in 1933 with the help of the Contemporary Art Society, a fund established in 1910 to help public museums and galleries buy important works of art.  
This surprising flower painting by Picasso reveals a lot about the tastes of the Tate Gallery Trustees in the early twentieth century. In 1933 Picasso was already an established avant-garde artist, but the decision to buy this conservative early work shows that the Trustees were resisting the more radical developments in modern art.

"Ye shall not add unto the word which I command you, neither shall ye diminish ought from it, that ye may keep the commandments of the LORD your God which I command you."



 Nude, Green Leaves and Bust
Nude, Green Leaves and Bust is a 1932 painting by Pablo Picasso, featuring his mistress Marie-Thérèse Walter. The painting was in the personal collection of Los Angeles art collectors Sidney and Frances Brody for nearly six decades. It is currently on show at Tate Modern in London, alongside other Picasso paintings from the gallery's own collection.

 Pablo Picasso - Girl before a Mirror, 1932, oil on canvas
Isaac and Rebecca
This is another of Rembrandt's great Baroque portraits which he completed during his last years. Like The Suicide of Lucretia (c.1666, Minneapolis Institute of Arts), it exemplifies the artist's genius for expressing human emotion on canvas, and is rightly considered to be one of the greatest portrait paintings of his final period. The painting acquired its current name during the early 19th century, when a Dutch art dealer described the subject as that of a Jewish father giving a necklace to his daughter on her wedding day. Today, while the identities of the two people remain obscure, most art historians believe them to be Isaac and his wife Rebecca from the Old Testament. A highlight of the permanent collection of the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, the picture is one of the few real expressions of love created by Dutch Realist artists during the 17th-Century Baroque era.
