One of the many French properties lived in by Picasso is being opened up to the public this summer.
For the first time this year the Chateau de Vauvenargues, near Aix, is being opened up to the public, according to Nick Trend from the Telegraph.
Picasso lived there with his family in 1959 when he was 80-years-old.
The home is still owned by his stepdaughter Catherine Hutin and visitors can expect to see an amateur film made by the painter from when the artist and his family moved into the French property.
Mr Trend says the Picasso Museum in Antibes is also a must-see show – the chateau was used as a studio by the artist in 1946 and is, according to Mr Trend, one of the most beautifully located museums in the world.
In addition, there are four more exhibitions available to the public this summer in Provence about Picasso.
These include the Cezanne Picasso Exhibition in Aix-en-Provence, the Catherdral of Images sound and light show in Baux-de-Provence, the Musee Reattu in Arles and the Museum of Photography in Mougins.
Picasso is famous for developing the Cubist movement in art in the first part of the 20th-century.
