Barcelona's most visited museum occu-
pies five of the many fine medieval stone mansions (worth wandering into for their
courtyards and galleries) on narrow Carrer de Montcada.
A visit starts, naturally enough, at the beginning, with sketches, oils and doodling
from Picasso's earliest years in Málaga and La Coruña - most of it done between
1893 and 1895. Some of his self-portraits, and the portraits of his father, which date
from 1896, are evidence enough of his precocious talent.
