About This Tour
Picasso had a deep passion for Barcelona, and this tour is designed to show you why. He arrived in the city in 1895 at just 13 years old. It was here that he experienced his first youthful adventures with friends—those who first recognized his extraordinary talent—and discovered the hidden pleasures of the city’s nightlife. Barcelona was also where Picasso established his first studio and created his earliest engravings and illustrations. It was here that he held his very first exhibition at the legendary restaurant Els Quatre Gats. At 22, Picasso moved to Paris and never returned permanently, but Barcelona always remained the dazzling city that inspired his youth and revealed the spirit of modernity to him.
