Picasso Museum Photos

For some idiotic reason, a 

security guard chased us off

from here.  Imagine that, a photo

in a public space.  What a jerk.

On the last few trips, every so often, the

photos load backwards in order.  As did

happen on this post.  Anyhow, this is a 

courtyard in one of the mansions that

make up the museum.

I think this is from Picasso's Cubist period,

but this could be his Surrealism period.

Give him credit, he tried

many different painting styles.

I didn't like many of the more modern pieces

back during our 2009 visit to the museum, 

but I'm definitely more draw to them now.

His blue period.

This is called "The Dwarf."  Terrible

name for it -- it should be called

"The Pissed Off Dwarf." 

First Communion, starring his

sister and father.  An early

successful painting.

I believe Picasso painted this

at age 13.  Not too shabby.
