Marie-Thérèse Walter (1909-1977; with Picasso 1927-1936)
The fourth, and arguably most famous of Picasso's muses. Picasso met the blonde 17 year-old outside the Galeries Lafayette department store in Paris in 1927, but kept their affair secret for eight years. She gave him a daughter, Maia, in 1935, at about the time she was supplanted in Picasso's affections by Dora Maar. She hanged herself in 1977.
