Pablo Picasso was an etcher.
While the names of many of his later periods are debated , the most commonly accepted periods in his work are the Blue Period -LRB- 1901 -- 1904 -RRB- , the Rose Period -LRB- 1904 -- 1906 -RRB- , the African-influenced Period -LRB- 1907 -- 1909 -RRB- , Analytic Cubism -LRB- 1909 -- 1912 -RRB- , and Synthetic Cubism -LRB- 1912 -- 1919 -RRB- , also referred to as the Crystal period.
The same mood pervades the well-known etching The Frugal Repast -LRB- 1904 -RRB- which depicts a blind man and a sighted woman , both emaciated , seated at a nearly bare table.
