Answer to Question 1

Answer: a

Answer to Question 2

Answer: The ideal answer should include:
1. Early sketches show that Picasso began the painting as a narrative scene of a brothel, including a sailor and a medical student as well as the five nude women.
2. After a visit to the Palais du Trocadro, where he saw African masks, he transformed the faces of three of the prostitutes into African masks.
3. The masks freed him from accurate representation.
4. As he worked, Picasso developed the figures into twisted views, seen from various points of view simultaneously. Picasso's drawings show the many changes in the evolution of the squatting figure who is seen from the front and back at the same time.
