View from the Picasso Museum in the town of Antibes, looking in easterly direction towards Nice and Monaco. The first time I visited the museum in the 1970s as a little kid it made an indelible impression to me and I subsequently spent months drawing Picasso-like artworks. The passion for the old master has never gone away and I have visited the museum in Paris  and more recently I took the kids to a temporary exhibition in the Seattle Art Museum. This summer a return to the old castle and its collection of paintings, drawings, ceramics, etchings and tapestry. The place was unchanged and as inspiring and moving as the first time I visited, now some forty years ago.
