In the life of Pablo Picasso
The whole life1895–1904 · Workplace
Barcelona
1901–1904
The Blue Period
The Blue Period began — somber paintings in blue-green tones with themes of poverty and sorrow; Picasso divided his time between Barcelona and Paris.
1904
Move to Paris, Beginning of the Rose Period
Picasso settled in the Bateau-Lavoir residence in Montmartre; the sorrow of the Blue Period gave way to images of the theater and the circus — the Rose Period began.
1904
Meeting Fernande Olivier
In Paris Picasso met the bohemian artist Fernande Olivier, who became his lover and the model for many Rose Period paintings.
1905
Meeting the Steins and Matisse
Picasso became a favorite of the collectors Leo and Gertrude Stein; at one of Gertrude Stein's gatherings in 1905 he met Henri Matisse — a lifelong friend and rival.
