Around birth there were several legends, some of which Picasso strived to promote. According to one, Picasso was born dead and the midwife has devoted his attention to the mother bedridden.Only the doctor, Don Salvador, saved from death by asphyxiation blowing you smoke a cigar in his face. The smoke made Picasso began to cry. His birth on 25 October 1881, at eleven and a quarter of the night, would be well described by Picasso to his biographers, who so willingly publishing.
Roland Penrose, one of the most famous biographer of Picasso, sought their origins in the grounds of his genius and his openness to art, natural understanding of a genius. In his parents' generation are numerous traces. His father was a painter and designer of very mediocre talent. Don José was devoted to painting the birds that perched in the sycamore Plaza de la Merced, near his home.Occasionally, the child asked him to stop tables. The paternal lineage allowed to study until the year 1841. Offspring of mothers surveyed, Dona Maria had ancestors among the two painters.Picasso's features are also similar to the mother.

With thirteen years, following the model of his father, Picasso had already reached the expertise of the parent (who was not of great refinement.) Unlike some lists that point, Picasso was right handed, as can be seen in the celebrated documentary The Mystery of Picasso.

The papers should submit at the end of the month, Pablo had them within a few days, after which his work stood out, even the finalists. [1] With fourteen years, Picasso was able to overcome the demands of a highly Academy of Art. Academic work, which according to himself, after several years of the scare.The work that was put him in the series of renowned painters from Barcelona, ​​and as Santiago Isidro Nonell Rusiñol, and frame the First Communion is exposed in the famous exhibition season in the city. [1] Despite opting for a religious theme, this does not cease to be a private event, the family plan. Although realistic and meet the academic requirements, on the other hand the work turns out to be an attempt to combat conventionalism.
