Landscapes of Barcelona

This small-scale exhibition presents a group of paintings and drawings from the Museu Picasso's permanent collection that reproduce the city and coastal region of Barcelona.

Picasso painted most of his landscapes between the years 1895 and 1903. During this period of his life he discovered a modern city that was looking to Europe, a city in which tradition withstood the test of time. These landscapes also establish Picasso's creative development: from his early apprenticeship to his connections with the Catalan artistic avant-garde, and the consolidation of his first distinctive style.
