Picasso Museum reopens


Photos by Madison Boehringer
In the old hotel frequented by Picasso, the newly renovated museum dedicated to his work reopened in the Marais, Paris.  The two pictures here are from Picasso's transitional period from realism to cubism. This is not an easy place to get to in Paris, but it is well worth it. That, and the fact that, it  is in the lovely Marais District of the city. As we decided to go there while across the river at the Musee d'Orsay, we took a cab - which is another story by itself. We then took a cab back to the Louvre  (we were staying a half a block from there). The city has many galleries and museums. Because we were traveling with a teenager we let her decide on the itinerary as we know that kids can get on art overload. Alas, besides some major shopping, she loved the museums and was open for more.
