The Musée National Picasso-Paris in the Marais district is home to one of the most extensive collections of Pablo Picasso's works in the world, with over 5,000 pieces in the collection including paintings, sculptures, ceramics, drawings, prints, and photographs.
The museum is housed in the Hôtel Salé, a grand 17th-century mansion (actually described as one of the most extravagant homes of the 17th century) which had extensive renovations done before it reopened as the Picasso Museum in 2014. The building itself is a work of art, with its Baroque architecture providing a fitting backdrop for Picasso's eclectic creations.
The collection spans Picasso's entire career, from his early works as a precocious young artist to his later, more experimental phases.
You can explore his various artistic periods, including his Blue Period, Rose Period, Cubism, and Surrealism, among others.
The museum also features pieces from Picasso’s personal collection which includes works from artists such as Cézanne, Degas, Rousseau, and Matisse, providing insight into the influences and relationships that shaped Picasso's artistic vision.
The museum offers a comprehensive overview of Picasso's life and art, making it a must-visit destination for art enthusiasts and admirers of one of the 20th century's most influential artists.
