Mon Influence sur la Culture Francaise

     Pablo Picasso has influenced the modern French world today in many ways. He is not only one of the most influential painters in the world, but he has also brought a new meaning to the word, art. He has created over 50,00 works of art which are all breathtaking, and people nowadays are trying to keep up his legacy. Pablo Picasso has truly been a unique figure in arts history. He has influenced many people into trying to be like Picasso, but no one has really ever gotten close to his majestic paintings.

     Even though Picasso didnt get a high education, his father taught him all he needed to know about art, and at an early age, Picasso's father was amazed by his skill level that was higher than his father's. His father always pushed him to go as far as he could, and never gave up on his son. He sent him to an art college, but Picasso soon became bored with it, and decided to quit, and to just go with his imagination.
