22 Sept-21 Jan. The Scuderie del Quirinale presents one of the most largest exhibitions ever dedicated to Picasso in Italy, a century after the artist set foot in the country.

The exhibition examines Italy's long-term impact on Picasso's work – his inspiration from ancient Roman statues and erotic frescoes in Pompeii – and his private life – he met his first wife, the Russian ballet dancer Olga Khokhlova in Rome while he designed the costumes and sets for the ballet Parade. The 100 works on display range fro 1915 to 1925, comprising Cubism to Classicism, with loans from major museums in London, Paris, New York, Berlin and Barcelona.
