Picasso News


Just recently, while at the Metropolitan Museum in New York a lady who was in an art class accidently bumped into one of Picasso's paintings from his Rose Period. The outcome turned into a six inch vertical tear BUT it can be repaired completely to look as good as new because the focal point of the painting was not damaged. Authorities or whoever don't understand how or what made her lose balance. This piece of art was donated to the museum in 1952 from the automobile heiress Thelma Chrysler Foy. The painting "The Actor" contains an acrobat in a dramatic pose against an abstract backdrop.
