Pablo Picasso framed and matted print on canvas of Don Quixote signed lower left "Picasso 11.3.55", 20.5" x 26.25". Bio from AskArt: Pablo Picasso (1881-1973) was born in Spain and lived most of his life there and in France. By the age of fourteen, he was an accomplished draftsman. There he studied the "Old Masters" and classical sculpture and also was exposed to the paintings of "Impressionists" and "Post Impressionists". Between 1901 and 1904, his work was dominated by a blue palette, which has led to this time being called his "Blue Period". Blue, for him, was to symbolize the ". . . suffering-frequently hunger and cold, the hardships he experienced while attempting to establish himself." The 1920s are regarded as one of the most productive periods of Picasso's career. In 1937, inspired by the Spanish Civil War, he painted Guernica, which is regarded as one of his landmark paintings and certainly one that carried a strong message of human suffering during wartime.
