What annoys me in the way Picasso is described is that virtuosity in his way of drawing is seen as a proof of talent (his early works) while other excellent artists from the 19th century era are ridiculed because of it. Just a thought. As a draughtsman he is just another artist who has the classic 19th century skill of academic drawing. Nothing more. A heavily overrated artist in my opinion.
