Pablo Picasso was born on 25 October 1881, in the Spanish coastal town of Malaga and by the time of his death in 1973, the impact that he created on the history of modern art was profound. As one of the 20th Century’s most influential artists, Picasso was a wildly inventive painter, sculptor, printmaker, ceramicist, stage designer, poet and playwright. Picasso helped invent the artistic vocabulary of Cubism, Surrealism and Post Modernism. Some of his most famous works include The Old Guitarist (1903), Les Demoiselles d’Avignon (1907) and Guernica (1937).
