Picasso in Barcelona

We visited the Picasso Museum in Barcelona. The exhibition shows works from archives, including Picasso’s early work. I did not know that Picasso developed a tremendous talent for drawing and painting at a young age. In his early teens, Picasso already made stunning drawings and oil paintings. The exhibition further illustrates Picasso’s development into cubism.

Also, an interesting part of the exhibition is Picasso’s visual examination of Las Meninas, Velazquez’s famous painting.

Recommended. The museum is located in the beautiful old neighborhoods of El Born and Barri Gòtic, which you’ll want to see while in Barcelona anyway.

The hill behind the campground

We walked a small lap around and over the ridge behind the campsite today after a drizzly start. (Strava enabled too late)

A paved rocky path turns into asphalt after two kilometers (counterclockwise). It is, at times, very steep, but the view is great. In the forest, Eucalyptus trees.

We walk a few hundred meters along the pilgrim path to Santiago de Compostella. The last bit along the road is less.

Kraan

Dit is toch geweldig.
