About the Family of Saltimbanques Painting
Picasso painted the circus on many occasions
around the time this painting was completed.
The artist was inspired by his visits to
the Cirque Médrano in Montmartre.
Pablo Picasso used the circus performers
to refer to the artist's alienation and
outsider image, particularly the image of
a modern artist breaking new ground.
Family of Saltimbanques is a major painting
by Picasso from this time, with the height
and width measuring more than two meters.
