For me, this is Picasso at his most introspective, reflective, creative phase demonstrating his love for Claude`s mother and the enduring love for Marie-Therese. 1948 was a pivotal year in Picasso`s developement of intaglio in his paintings and ceramics. Perhaps, one of the happiest times in his life, as shown in Claude`s face and body.

Is the signature in code as fingers on the left hand? What do you think all scholars and theorists out there?

'I believe I might have come across an early oil painting by Picasso. It is oil painting signed P. Ruiz Picasso “98” It is a painting on a church alongside a still body of water. Very realistic which was his style at that time - he would have been 17 years old. How could I find the location of this painting ?'

'He did a painting called Science and Charity. His father and sister Lola were his models. Lola was shown sick in bed. Pablo’s father posed as the doctor at her bedside. The painting was very realistic in style. It won a prize at an exhibit in Madrid. Pablo beat some of the best artists in Spain!'
