* {{Workaholic}}: Picasso was so prolific during his 75-year career that when he died in 1973, he had created an estimated 13,500 paintings, 100,000 engravings and graphic prints, 300 sculptures, and 34,000 book illustrations--more than the size of most museums' entire collections. He would produce paintings at such a rate that, from the time he woke up and started working to the time he went to sleep, he would produce so many paintings that the entire floor of his apartment would be carpeted in them. His roommate, poet Max Jacob, would often have to walk over them when leaving for work--indeed, art restorators working on Picasso paintings from this period must often remove Max's footprints from them. Astonishingly, he even burned his own paintings for warmth during the winter.

* EarlyInstallmentWeirdness: His first paintings looked more like classic paintings, as Picasso hasn't yet developped the art style he is widely known for. A couple of good examples are [[https://www.pablo-ruiz-picasso.net/work-9.php First Communion]] and [[https://www.pablo-ruiz-picasso.net/work-11.php Science and Charity]].

Added DiffLines:

* Music/{{Wings|Band}}' 1973 song "Picasso's Last Words (Drink to Me)" was inspired by Picasso's death, which frontman Music/PaulMcCartney learned about while vacationing in Jamaica four months before recording commenced for ''Music/BandOnTheRun''. Accordingly, the song's chorus quotes what were widely reported to be Picasso's final words before he died in his sleep of a heart attack.

* NotGoodWithPeople: Picasso devoted his entire life to his art and wasn't very fond of committed relationships. As mentioned, he ''was'' an infamous womanizer, [[MuseAbuse but that's not to say]] he treated his wives and girlfriends ''well''.
