The marriage to the much younger woman gave Picassos creating a new boost. About Pablo Picasso 1881-1973 - Century artist from Spain "Painting is stronger than me; it forces me to do what it wants."

When Pablo Picasso died at the age of 91, he left the world a total work of over 40,000 work - and the certainty that he was the most important artist of the 20th century.
