I didn't really get Picasso until we went to a little museum somewhere in Spain (I forget where) where we saw a bunch of his early paintings. There were none of his later famous masterpieces, just early work like above. It's viewing all the paintings he did as a child that helps you understand how he ended up where he did. He matched or surpassed the previous masters at a very young age.
