...generally: Les Demoiselles d'A vignon. His eclecticism -another of the virtuoso's traits-produced incessant raids on other styles, from Pompeian murals, 17th century Dutch etchings and Ingres drawings to Dogon masks and Mogul miniatures. Few great artists since Rembrandt had amassed, and used, such a hybrid pile of objects from art or nature as Picasso; variety was his sauna.
