Museu Picasso
The Picasso Museum is beyond Via Laietana, bottomward Carrer de la Princesa, and appropriate on Carrer Montcada – a artery accepted for Barcelona’s best affected medieval palaces. Picasso spent several of his determinative years (1901-06) in Barcelona, and this collection, while not one of the world’s best, is decidedly able on his aboriginal work. Displays accommodate adolescence sketches, pictures from the admirable Rose and Blue periods, and the acclaimed 1950s Cubist variations on Velázquez’s Las Meninas (Ladies-in-Waiting).COST: EUR4.50; chargeless 1st Sun. of month. Tues.-Sat. 10-8, Sun. 10-3.
