Pablo Picasso (1881-1973) was a prolific creative.

Picasso was taught painting by his father from the time he was nine. Not satisfied with what he was learning at home and wanting to know more, Picasso began attending the School of Fine Arts in Barcelona when he was 13. His father and uncle sent him to study at the Royal Academy of San Fernando in Madrid when he was 16. Picasso remained at the Royal Academy for a short amount of time.
