You've seen the recipe book and....

...now it's time to see some more paintings that Picasso left behind in the Zurich Museum. Of course we've been to Arles in France where we had the chance to spend some hours in the gallery which Picasso created with his money. Of course it wasn't filled only with his work but it was meant as a memorial to his artistry. So here are some more. You can decide if you want to enlarge the pictures by clicking on them. I was often surprised at the colours and at the figurative display...one person...maybe two...maybe more. If you give them the time you may see the reward you didn't expect.


 OMG! Where is the reward in these you might ask?
Ugly to some but perhaps they require some understanding of the shapes and the perspective he saw.

 Then again the colours are what make the picture attractive in the first place. Or maybe it is all very personal. His original artistry expressed in the picture presented of a lovely young female in my previous Blog entry is more like one expects from an artist. And it is difficult not to like better than his cubist imaging which came later.

Don't forget to click on the images to enlarge.
