Happy Friday! For “L” day in the A to Z Challenge I am going to be brief. Enjoy a few pictures of Picasso‘s dachshund, Lump. Except Lump is not really Picasso‘s dachshund. Lump belonged to David Douglas Duncan and Picasso “borrowed” Lump for about 6 years.
Find out Lump’s story HERE.
–Picasso presenting Lump with his own ceramic plate with a drawing by the master! Jacqueline Roque watches.
–Picasso’s drawing of Lump all in one line . . .
–Picasso and Lump
–Picasso and Lump on a stroll.
–David Douglas Duncan wrote a book or two about Lump, but so have others!
I like the paint the dog tracked through! I wouldn’t like it at my own house, but it looks good here!
Aw, Lumpito!!!
‘borrowed for 6 years’ – 🙂

Iain, Lump lived approximately 10 more years after his illness!
Hi Denise – what fun … I’d never realised that before … I think I knew about the illustration – but not the backstory … lovely – cheers Hilary
Backstories are the best, Hilary!
Love the drawing!
So Picasso, for sure, Martha!
Accurate representation, I’d say. 🙂
Haha! Yes, Silvia!
