At the age of 102, the artist and beloved of the Spanish artist Pablo Picasso Françoise Gilo died. This was reported in the publication The New York Times.
It is noted that in the last months of her life she experienced problems with her lungs and heart.
The relationship with Picasso, who was 40 years older than Gilot, lasted almost 10 years and ended in 1953. The artist and his chosen one had two children, but the woman decided to leave the founder of cubism because of his many betrayals.
After the break with Picasso, Gilot was actively engaged in creativity. Her paintings were quite popular and are now presented in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Museum of Modern Art in New York, the Pompidou Center in Paris.
In addition, the artist has published several books, including the memoir “My Life with Picasso”. The work so angered the artist that he cut off all contact with Gilot and her children.
December REN TV reported the death of Picasso’s eldest daughter Maya Ruiz-Picasso. She was 87 years old.
