Dora Maar (1907-1997)
Painter and photographer, she was the lover, the Muse and the Model of Pablo Picasso from 1936 to 1943 when he left her for Françoise Gillot.
We owe him the pictures of the elaboration of the famous painting "Guernica" by Picasso. This rupture marks the beginning of a serious nervous breakdown and the exasperation of his mystical tendencies.
