毕加索于1920年开始在昂蒂布胡安莱潘度过他的暑假，大部分暑假回到了蔚蓝海岸，直到战争爆发。在那些年里，他为与家人一起住的别墅以及海滩上的沐浴者创作了油画和素描，许多绘画研究最终在他巴黎的工作室中得以实现。战后他再次返回，并通过反映古典和神话时代的构图展示了他对那个地区的亲和力。《帕勃罗的假期》伴随着在安提布的毕加索博物馆（Musee Picasso）举办的同名展览，由研究这位画家的七位权威作者撰写。六个专题部分介绍了展出的作品，对文章进行了补充。

Picasso began to spend his summer holidays in Antibes Juan-les-Pins in 1920, returning most summers to the Côte d’Azur until the outbreak of war. During those years, he produced paintings and drawings of the villas where he stayed with his family, as well as of bathers on the beach, and many studies for paintings that were ultimately realized in his studio back in Paris. He returned again after the war and showed his affinity for the region in compositions that reflect its classical and mythological past.

M. Pablo’s Holidays accompanies an exhibition of the same name at the Musée Picasso in Antibes, and is composed of seven essays by authoritative writers on the artist. The essays are enhanced by six thematic sections that present the exhibited works.
