The Spanish painter, sculptor, and graphic artist was one of the most prodigious and revolutionary artists in the history of Western painting.

As the central figure in developing cubism, he established the basis for abstract art. Les Demoiselles d'Avignon (1907) is generally regarded as the first cubist painting.

Picasso's most celebrated painting is Guernica. It projects an image of pain and brutality that has few parallels among advanced paintings of the 20th century.
