????Pablo Picasso was one of the most famous and prolific artists of all time. During his lifetime of 92 years---he was born in 1881 and died in 1973--he produced thousands of paintings, drawings and sculptures. He dominated Western art in the 20th century and no useful discussion of art is possible without reference to his work. Not only is he important because of his own work, he is equally important, perhaps, for his influence on other artists and developments in modern art.

????Picasso was born in Malaga, Spain. He showed his talent at a very early age and was admitted to advanced classes at the Royal Academy of Art in Barcelona when he was only 15. When he was 23, he moved to Paris where he lived and worked for many years.

????Apart from his paintings, Picasso worked on sculptures, ceramics and stage designs. He continued working until his death, and is recognized as one of the most outstanding artists in the world. There is probably not an art gallery of any importance anywhere that does not have at least a number of his drawings or paintings.

“?Stay there, Frank, I'll ask Ann and Alex to come here. We will get you out.”?

The three friends climbed down into the valley. They couldn't find Frank but they found his hat. Near the enormous eggs was a footprint that was one meter square. The friends walked for hours following the trail of footprints until it was almost night.
