By 1906, Picasso has met with Matisse. They look, behave and paint very differently to each other. There is respect but also rivalry between the two of them.
Author Sue Roe's account, abridged by Katrin Williams, describes how Pablo Picasso and other artists found this Paris quarter irresistible when arriving in the 1900's:
