Pablo Picasso. House in a Garden.

I love Pablo Picasso! House in a Garden is one of my love on the legend. The Original painting is now at The Hermitage, St. Petersburg, Russia. I wish I could go there witness with my bare eyes on this masterpiece!
Born on October 25, 1881, in Málaga, Spain. He is a son of an academic painter, José Ruiz Blasco.
1895 the family moved to Barcelona, and Picasso studied there at La Lonja, the academy of fine arts. It's crucial to his early artistic development over there.
Picasso’s first exhibition took place in Barcelona in 1900, then he went to Paris for the first of several stays during the early years of the century. Picasso settled in Paris in April 1904, and his circle of friends soon included Guillaume Apollinaire, Max Jacob, Gertrude and Leo Stein, as well as two dealers, Ambroise Vollard and Berthe Weill.
His death on April 8, 1973 & here we enjoy his masterpiece- House in a Garden.
Cheers........
