Picasso and Lump

Lump by Picasso

Picasso loved animals and his work is rich with depictions of them. In contrast to his usual beautifully complex style, Picasso’s animal drawings are loved for their simplicity and minimalism. There is even a book devoted to the artist and his best friend – Picasso and Lump: A Dachshund’s Odyssey, the little-known story of Pablo Picasso and his lovable dog Lump, who is immortalized in many of Picasso's acclaimed works of art. Isn't it wonderful that a dog named Lump became an icon in modern art? via

Picasso Brings $106.5M, Most Espensive Painting Ever Sold

$106.5m buys the most expensive painting in the world: "A 1932 painting by Pablo Picasso has set a world art auction record, selling for a staggering $US106.48 million, the auction house Christie's announced in New York."

The New York Times reports that Picasso dashed this painting off in one day in 1964, not 1932. Regardless, it is now the most expensive painting ever sold. It is called Nude, Green Leaves and Bust. Read the fascinating article when you have time.

Now I'm off to plant some herbs that cost $1.99 US.
