What stands out as the most important facts about the artist?
1.Picasso first emerged as a Symbolist influenced by the likes of Edvard Munch and Henri de ToulouseLautrec. This tendency shaped his so-called Blue Period, in which he depicted beggars, prostitutes, and
various urban misfits, and also the brighter moods of his subsequent Rose Period.
2. Picasso was always eager to place himself in history, and some of his greatest works, such as Les
Demoiselles d'Avignon (1907), refer to a wealth of past precedents - even while overturning them. As he
matured he became only more conscious of assuring his legacy, and his late work is characterized by a
frank dialogue with Old Masters such as Jean-Auguste Dominique Ingres, Diego Velazquez, Francisco
Goya, and Rembrandt van Rijn.
3. Picasso had an eclectic attitude to style, and although, at any one time, his work was usually
characterized by a single dominant approach, he often moved interchangeably between different styles sometimes even in the same artwork.
