Man with a sheep
Bronze statue made by Picasso : "Man with a sheep". Picasso's first sculpture to be installed in a public space, as the artist intended, Man with a Sheep watches over the market square and is a focal point for visitors.
It was produced in 1943 and gifted to the town in 1949 as thanks for the warm welcome Picasso received. As a mark of gratitude, the town gave Picasso honorary citizen status.
There are two other copies of this sculpture, one in Philadelphia and the other at the Picasso Museum in Paris.
