We present the largest compilation ever made of Pablo Picasso’s Catalan work.

Eduard Vallès, director of this work, writes in the prologue: “Picasso’s relationship with Catalonia constitutes one of the most significant episodes in the history of Catalan art.”

Picasso, the greatest painter of the 20th century, trained and artistically blossomed in Catalonia. Born in Malaga, he spent his childhood there, followed his family to A Coruña, and finally arrived in Barcelona in 1895, at the age of 14.

Throughout his life, he maintained relationships with Catalan friends and expressed his connection to Catalonia. The enormous donation of his own work to the Picasso Museum in Barcelona is proof of this.

Picasso arrived in Barcelona in 1895, at the age of 14. He stopped residing there in 1904, when he moved to Paris, but continued to visit places in Catalonia regularly until 1917: Horta de Sant Joan, Gósol, Cadaqués, Céret, and also Barcelona.

The work consists of two books, both housed within a slipcase: A large-format book, with full-page or life-size reproductions of Picasso’s paintings; and a study book on Picasso’s work created in Catalonia.
