The interior of the castle is simple, somber, and strong; it’s the perfect foil for Picasso’s modern works. He donated 23 paintings and 44 drawings after his stay here and gave the museum its ceramic collection in 1948. In 1954, Picasso donated two sculptures of another of his mistresses, Marie-Thérèse Walter. It’s her prominent, patrician nose that you see portrayed in many of his most famous paintings of women.
