One of the greatest, most prolific, and most creative painters of the 20th century, he produced paintings, prints, ceramics, and sculptures. The Picasso Museums in Madrid, Paris, and Antibes, as well as the Museum Ludwig in Cologne, house many of Picasso's works, and many other museums also competed to acquire his art.
