British Designer Sir Paul Smith has given a new lease of life To Artist Pablo Picasso's works in an exhibition he directed at Paris's Picasso Museum.

The fashion designer's collaboration with the museum comes as the institution marks the 50th anniversary of the Franco-Spanish Artist's death.

The exhibition was developed over the last four years, with smith drawing inspiration from the Picasso Museum's collection of nearly 200,000 pieces.

The Museum hopes the exhibition will attract more visitors.
