Picasso's Triumph of Pan

The Picasso I think especially in the little drawing is essentially romantic, e.g.








spacial and as unknown or not clear. What is interesting to me is how the black line

drawing floats to the surface and becomes classical or true, seeming-- as what

was found.


















What is puzzling is that the Picasso drawing is filled with character-- an abstract character of inventedness.

The Poussin in it's realism falls behind to me surprisingly, though there are moments when it is maybe better?

Wouldn't it be great to see a show of Picasso and the old masters.
