Spanish painter, Pablo Picasso, who passed away on
8 April 1973, aged 91, was perhaps the most famous and influential artist of
the 20th Century.
Picasso moved to Paris to work from his native Spain. Picasso's long artistic
career included many styles, including his early Blue and Rose Periods before
developing Cubism with Georges Braque from 1909.
His most famous painting Guernica (1937) depicts an event from the Spanish
Civil war and comes from his later Classical Period. Picasso worked with many
mediums, including collage, sculpture (The Chicago Picasso), ceramics and
prints.
