It isn’t quite as obvious as “The Weakling”, but I see what you are saying. I will post some photos of the two to see what other people think. It is very possible that other figures in the line are based on other famous paintings. There are some figures, like most of the other ones I pictured, that I am almost positive aren’t based on anything specific, but I really wouldn’t be surprised to find out that more than one figure are based on famous paintings. If I find out about any others I will post them on the site.

Speaking of Cubism influences, in that picture of other pieces, that blue reclining woman bears some strong resemblances to the second woman from the left in Picasso’s Les Demoiselles d’Avignon. The ringed eyes, the hand behind the head, the crossed legs, and the sheet. I wonder if most of the figures in the line are based on figures from paintings.
