The Picasso Museum in Barcelona houses one of the largest collections of works by the Spanish artist Pablo Picasso, and is one of the most famous and visited museums in the city. The museum is located in the Barri Gòtic district, and its permanent collection consists of 4,249 works, most of which date back to the artist's youth. Among the most representative works on display are two of his early masterpieces, The First Communion of 1896 and Science and Charity of 1897.
In particular, a visit to the Picasso Museum reveals the artist's relationship with Barcelona, a relationship formed in his childhood and adolescence and continued until his death.
