By 1918 Picasso’s popularity as well as his acquaintance with reputed artists and poets had produced certain results. He starts cooperating with Dyagilev’s famous “Russian Seasons”. He paints scenery, curtains and designs dancewear. There he meets Olga Khokhlova, a chorus girl. They get married and the artist’s new muse starts influencing his style because she wants to recognize herself in portraits at least. Picasso moves away from cubism and turns to a more realistic manner. At first, social life full of entertainments appeals to Picasso. He has a huge studio that occupies a whole floor, a car with a driver and a gold watch. He feels happy for some time, moreover, Olga bears him a son called Paul and his paintings are now valued. But his intense creative energy makes him restless and eventually the artist gives up everything to set off towards new discoveries.

08 June Maria from seattle wrote: 'There is such an incredible difference between his work in 1892 and the previous year. It is hard to believe this work is from the same artist.'

Portrait d`homme [Bibi-la-puree]'

I have a high res version where the 'color' is accurate (not the murky gray-green of yours). I'm never sure if for profit sites like yours just don't get it or just don't care. I'm surprised Picasso's heirs haven't come down on you. I ran a fairly high profile non-profit art history site long ago; they harassed me....Apologies for raining on your parade, but you can and should do better. These ubelievably poor digital images do a disservice both to the art and the artist.'

This is the same man who painted the Guernic. Which I did see when I was young.'
