Pablo Picasso

When I was young; I never understood the works of Picasso. He was too surreal for my taste. Only when I became a grown up man I finally realized the greatness of his artistery.

There is an anectodte about Picasso and his painting "Guernica". It was a painting picturing the Basque village of Guernica being bombed by nazis during the Spanish civil war.

During WW II Picasso lived in France and a Gestapo officer once asked him; "Are you the one who did Guernica?" And Picasso answered; "No, that was you!"
