Pablo Picasso
Pablo Ruiz Picasso (25 October 1881 – 8 April 1973) was a Spanish painter, sculptor, printmaker, ceramicist, and theatre designer who spent most of his adult life in France. One of the most influential artists of the 20th century, he is known for co-founding the Cubist movement, the invention of constructed sculpture, the co-invention of collage, and for the wide variety of styles that he helped develop and explore. Among his most famous works are the proto-Cubist Les Demoiselles d'Avignon (1907) and the anti-war painting Guernica (1937), a dramatic portrayal of the bombing of Guernica by German and Italian air forces during the Spanish Civil War.
Picasso demonstrated extraordinary artistic talent in his early years, painting in a naturalistic manner through his childhood and adolescence. During the first decade of the 20th century, his style changed as he experimented with different theories, techniques, and ideas. After 1906, the Fauvist work of the older artist Henri Matisse motivated Picasso to explore more radical styles, beginning a fruitful rivalry bet

In 1891, Pepe was transferred to Coruña, on the northwestern Spanish coast, following the closure of the museum in Malaga. He took his family with him. Picasso was ten years old.
As soon as they arrived, Don José enrolled Pablo in the Instituto de la Guarda, which was located in the same building as the city's Museum of Fine Arts, but he was still not interested in the schooling.
At the age of 13, the young Picasso was confronted with a traumatic event. His sister, Conchita, fell ill and died of diphtheria at the age of 7. He recounts this episode, sixty years later, to Françoise Gilot (his companion at the time), who transcribes it in her book "Living with Picasso". Picasso explains that he wished to stop drawing if his sister was able to cope. Unfortunately for her, the wish was not fulfilled, and the ghost of this funeral promise followed the artist for the rest of his career.
Artistic production
Since 1892, Picasso was enrolled in a drawing class at the Fine Arts School in Coruña, while continuing his classical education.
He continued to improve his drawing skills and use
