There are two female figures with blue background. These two women are very free comparing to the rest of figures on the painting. They are depicted very freely; for example, the noses of them are very long and their mouths are strangely small.

She is showing her back (because of her breast, we can say she is showing her back), while she looks us straight in the face. It is impossible pose.

I read figures on Les Demoiselles d’Avignon as personification of ideas: Philanthropy, Equality, and Liberty because of her posture, colors, and historical background not because of traditional icons of these ideas.
