Pablo Picasso, a versatile artist with expertise in a variety of mediums, bears a lasting influence on the art world. From practicing Realism early in his career to pioneering Cubism, Picasso also made significant contributions to Symbolism and Surrealism. Though best known for his paintings, the Spanish artist is also recognized as a ceramicist. Christie’s is celebrating Picasso’s artistry in the upcoming Picasso Ceramics auction.
