Picasso was fascinated by the text and identified with Frenhofer so much that he moved to the rue des Grands-Augustins in Paris where Balzac located Porbus' studio.

Picasso lived here during World War II. https://static3.museoreinasofia.es/sites/default/files/styles/foto_horizontal_wide/public/obras/DE00050_0.jpg?itok=mFGHDDHm https://static3.museoreinasofia.es/sites/default/files/style...
