(no pikassoved just pikassofil)

Everybody is aware of dozens of portraits of Picasso's wives, civil (and official-Khokhlova). But Picasso's long time writing the same nameless models - the elderly, women and children. Curious about who they were, these men, whose portraits adorn the best museums ... maybe in the books all have been described, but I'll share my personal little "discovery".
In blue and pink period, Picasso often used as a model of a teenage boy - A boy with a horse (Washington), Boy with dog (Hermitage), Boy with a Pipe ... and much more. And considering the girl is on the ball (Pushkin), I see that a strong adult athlete, contortionist - it's the same boy! More precisely, of 12-year-old Picasso took only his head and his body placed a male adult. And there is a sketch where an acrobat, with its head, but in the painting by Pablo left his body and his head replaced.
Because of this, an acrobat to be very alienation, unearthly, as the proportions change. Funny ...

Picasso worked without a model of the head so often shapes similar to his father and his mother, but also painted himself in a mirror. Boy he was doing with yourself. On the nature of his elementary nebylo money.
