#1 Picasso and his friend Carles Casagemas arrived in Paris from Barcelona in mid-October 1900. They were tasked with seeing the Exposition Universelle, which was scheduled to close on November 12. They had little time to dally if they wanted to see it.

#2 In Paris, the engineers and construction workers were working on the city’s new underground Métro system. It was completed in July 1900, just in time for the opening of the exposition.

#3 The Métro was a new form of transportation that revolutionized Paris life. It was designed by Hector Guimard, who was chosen to design its many entrances. They were elegant but light, with iron and glass as the preferred materials.

#4 The Paris Métro was built by Hector Guimard, a French designer who had won the contract to build the stations. Guimard’s hair-trigger temper and keen sense of self-worth would soon get him in trouble.
