Picasso and Fernande are off to Spain. Ochre houses, white roads and azure skies are very different to the hues of Montmartre, and open the mind to some fantastic possibilities.
Author Sue Roe's account, abridged by Katrin Williams, describes how Pablo Picasso and other artists found this Paris quarter irresistible when arriving in the early 1900's:
4. Picasso travels with Fernande to Spain, which opens the mind to some fantastic possibilities. And one particular picture will cause a stir.
