The 1934 Drawing and its Correspondences in Picasso's Oeuvre
Minotaur with Javelin, 1934
 In this drawing, executed just a few months
before the recently discovered drawing, there is a similar spear motif
placed in an almost identical location, horizontally along the upper edge
of the composition.
 In the 1934 drawing the spear relates to a scene from
Wagner's "Parsifal". Picasso's "Minotaur with Javelin" also contains a
severed arm motif similar to the one in the drawing.
