Pablo Picasso, painter, sculptor, and inventor of styles, was born in 1881 in Malaga, Spain.

He demonstrated a precocious talent for drawing and trained in Barcelona and Madrid. Having moved to Paris in the early 1900s, he went through several creative phases: the melancholic and dramatic Blue Period; the luminous and more poetic Rose Period; and, together with Georges Braque, the invention of Cubism, which revolutionized modern art.

Among his most famous works are Les Demoiselles d'Avignon (1907), the manifesto of Cubism, and Guernica (1937), a powerful anti-war statement.

A prolific and tireless artist, he experimented with painting, sculpture, ceramics, and printmaking, continually renewing his artistic language.

Picasso died in Mougins, France, in 1973, leaving behind an immense legacy that has forever marked the history of art.
