Museum Magic: The Picasso Museum, Paris

While in Paris at the end of July, one of my many stops was the Picasso Museum. Filled with 5,000 of his works, including some of his most famous ones. I was able to see the Portrait of Dora Maar, The Kiss, The seated Woman with Crossed Arms, Head of a Bearded Man, and The Weeping Woman to name a few. I think the pieces speak for themselves better than I ever could.

The Picasso museum is a very cool place to visit when in Paris, where you get to see Picasso's style evolve and develop into the cubism he is most known for. I tried to find most of the names of paintings I took photos of, but I could only recall and find out so many. 

Talk to you later,
