Picasso on finding new subjects


« Le peintre qui fait un pas en avant dans l’histoire de la peinture est celui qui a découvert un nouveau sujet. » (Picasso, quoted in « Vivre avec Picasso », Françoise Gilot and Lake Carlton, Calmann-Lévy Publisher, 1973, page 277)

We can translate this as:

« The painter who moves a step forward in painting history is the one who has discovered a new subject.»
