Max Jacob (1876-1944) var en indflydelsesrig skikkelse i fransk poesi.
Jacob var en slags nestor for og forbindelse mellem de tidlige avantgardebevægelser (surrealisterne, dadaisterne, kubisterne...) og hans forfatterskab rummer en mængde ansatser til det, 10'ernes og 20'ernes unge digtere skal folde ud for fuld udblæsning.
Den afsluttende del taler derimod om digterens forpligtelse, om det, han netop har udført i begyndelsen: "De skal sammenfatte rytmen i Biografen og den der er i haglen, og desuden latteren hos dem der ta'r del i den gamle kurtisanes død for at få en idé om Purgatorium".

 Picasso: Sa Vie en Rose: sketching

His relationship with Jacob would have implied a sexual and thus artistic tenderness, bordering on weakness perhaps, that would have conflicted with Picasso’s quest for personal potency as an artist and as a masculine lover.
Indeed by likening some of his earlier figures to Jacob, Picasso externalizes his homosexual identity by associating it with Jacob and then, through his paintings, supplants this figure with more virile likenesses representing a more artistically potent version of himself.
