What was Dora Maar famous for?
1 Answer
Dora Maar was famous for her impact on the art world. Arguably, she is best known for being the model and inspiration for Pablo Picasso's Weeping Women series of portraits. However, Maar was also an artist in her own right. Among her works were photomontages that helped define the Surrealist movement while also commenting on the day's sociopolitical issues.
