    Classicism 1916-1925

    a beautiful dancer
    named Olga Kokhlova
    and in 1918 they were
    married.

    during this time were
    brighter and sunnier
    than his prior Cubist
    works.
    Surrealism 1925-1934
    • In 1925 Picasso
    became closely
    involved with a group

    • The painting shows a series of terrifying scenes showing
    the brutality of war and its destructiveness.
    World War II
    • World War II began in
    1939. The Germans
    invaded and conquered
    France.
    • Picasso could have fled,
    but he decided to paint
    and sculpt.

    a somber mood, but by
    staying in Paris, the artist
    became a symbol of
    freedom.

    After the War
    • In spite of the war,
    Picasso’s fame
    spread all over the
    world.
    • His lithograph of the
    dove became the
    International symbol
    for world peace.
    A Celebration of Peace
    The Final Years 1954-1973

    • Picasso spent his last years as a celebrity-his art


    as well as his person became a myth.
    • In this period, Picasso spent a large amount of
    time reworking masterpieces by other painters,
    such as the Velazquez seen above.
    Pablo Picasso 1881-1973

    age of 91 in April
    1973.
    • His remarkable talent
    was beyond dispute
    and remains a
