There are a few different theories as to why Picasso\u2019s studio was named as such. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">The first suggests that it came from the fact that the outside of the building resembled the boats used for public washing that used to be docked on the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/things-to-do-near-the-seine-river-paris\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Seine River<\/a>&nbsp;at the time. Another theory says that it was perhaps because the building was in such rickety shape that when the wind blew you got the feeling that you were on a ship! And last, but not least, others say it was because the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/top-5-artists-who-lived-in-paris\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">artist<\/a> residents typically had a clothesline filled with there garments drying outside nearly all the time.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">Whichever theory you\u2019d like to believe in, the studio was loving called <i>Le Bateau-Lavoir<\/i>, and has since become a main feature of Montmartre!<\/span><\/p>\n<h4 class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\"><b>2.

He was quickly smitten with the city and began to live between Spain and Â鶹APP from 1900-1904. After his best friend at the time, Carlos Casagemas sadly took his own life in a Â鶹APPian caf\u00e9, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/what-to-do-in-the-picasso-museum-in-paris\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Picasso<\/a> embarked on what would be known as his &#8216;Blue Period,&#8217; and he soon decided that he wanted to live in Â鶹APP full time.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">He found lodging at l<i>e Bateau-Lavoir <\/i>in 1904, and was soon living and painting there. Montmartre used to be famous for it\u2019s low rents and cheap eats. Before the city limits of Â鶹APP were expanded in 1860, Montmartre was a village on its own, and its residents were a bit on the scruffy side. By the time Picasso arrived there nearly 45 years later, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/top10\/10-reasons-to-visit-the-montmartre-museum\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Montmartre<\/a> was still known as the rough part of the city.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">Once Picasso set up shop in the studio, he partnered up with fellow painter Georges Braque to develop what would become one of the most important art movements of the twentieth century &#8211; Cubism!<\/span><\/p>\n<h4 class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">3.

The painting shocked the art world and many in Picasso\u2019s entourage for it\u2019s extremely unfeminine portrayal of women. When it was exhibited in 1916, the Â鶹APPian art world rejected the painting as immoral. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">Today, the painting is considered to be the final departure from the traditional painting style of the nineteenth century, the first work of modern art, and is one of the first cubist paintings ever produced! <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">You can find the piece is on display at the Modern Museum of Art in New York City. I\u2019ve seen the painting in person in New York, and it really is so special to see up close. If you\u2019re ever in New York, definitely check it out!<\/span><\/p>\n<h4 class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\"><b>4.

It was actually her brother Leo that discovered Picasso in his studio. On the Steins&#8217; first visit to the <i>Bateau-Lavoir<\/i>, the pair bought 800 francs (nearly 2,500 euros today) worth of art!<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">In 1905, Picasso painted Gertrude Stein&#8217;s portrait in the studio. You can see the portrait yourself if you head to the Modern Museum of Art in New York City.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">This was just the beginning of the beautiful friendship between Picasso and Gertrude Stein. He could often be found at her <i>salon<\/i> on the rue des Fleurus in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/best-things-to-do-in-paris-sixth-district\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">6th arrondissement<\/a>, where Gertrude had his paintings on display.

I would give anything to have been a fly on the wall during those moments &#8211; it seems that Gertrude Stein was friends with almost every one of my favorite authors!<\/span><\/p>\n<h4 class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\"><b>5.

It was rebuilt in concrete in 1978 to avoid another fire. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">Today, if you are an artist, you can rent a studio inside the complex! There are 25 different studios in the structure, and although you can\u2019t live there, if you\u2019re a young artist, you can rent a studio to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/the-best-life-drawing-classes-in-paris\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">work on your own<\/a> masterpieces. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">This fire wasn\u2019t the only one that occurred at the studio. According to the memoirs of fellow-artist-turned-lover Fernande Olivier was locked inside the studio because Picasso was jealous that she may pose for other painters when he wasn\u2019t there. It just so happens that on this day, the <em>Bateau-Lavoir<\/em> caught fire! Olivier was thankfully okay. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">Picasso was an extremely jealous person, and tended to become obsessive with women. His relationship with Fernande wasn\u2019t any different! Another fun fact about their relationship? Fernande is said to have brought Picasso out of his &#8216;Blue Period,&#8217; and ushered him into his &#8216;Rose Period.&#8217;<\/span><\/p>\n<h4 class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\"><b>Conclusion<\/b><\/span><\/h4>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">Today, unfortunately you are unable to enter the studio unless you are renting there as an artist. But, there is an informative plaque that the city of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/what-to-do-on-saturdays-in-paris\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Â鶹APP<\/a> installed just outside to commemorate Picasso and all of the other impressive artists that once worked and lived in the studio. There is also a window display which features photos and other information!<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">I hope you\u2019ve learned a lot from this blog about Picasso\u2019s studio in Montmartre!
