Walking Tour With Picasso Museum of Barcelona

Explore the area where Pablo Picasso grew up and try to imagine it in the early 20th century. Discover the background of this famous, eccentric Spanish painter as your guide shares the stories of Picasso's acquaintances and the occasions that shaped his life and artistic endeavors. Explore the restaurant Els Quatre Gats, which served as a meeting place for intellectuals during Picasso's day. Admire Picasso's lone piece of public art, the friezes on the facade of the Architects' Association building. Visit Llotja de Mar, the art school where Picasso studied, and the museum with the largest collection of works from his early and formative years. In the second hour of the excursion, a tour of the Picasso Museum awaits you. Explore the most important collection of Picasso's early and formative work in the world, tracing the evolution of his style from the Classics to the birth of Cubism. Housed in a historic house, the Picasso Museum is located near the site of Picasso's last studio before he left the city for Paris. Along with ceramics and engravings, several of his later works, such as the 1957 series of adaptations of Vel zquez's Las Meninas, are also exhibited in the most important museums.
