Did you know that Picasso was very interested in mythologies? Did you know that the first Picasso painting that was preserved was of the legendary hero Hercules?
In the period between November 24th in 2016 and the 20th of March in 2017 you can get to know so much more about Pablo Picasso and his attraction to mythology. Here you can watch some of his amazing creations portraying for example Hercules, Apollo, Calydon, Cephalus, Meleager, Nestor, Pollux, Poseidon, the Minotaur and Zeus. In addition you can watch other beings and feelings he portrayed such as centaurs, fauns and muses, and they explain trivial facts about everyday life, prowess, pleasures, pain, tragedy, etc.
Based on this it might even be something you can bring your kids to, because they do for sure love fauns, centaurs, muses and of course super heroes like Apollo, Nestor and Pollux.
