Picasso's father, José Ruiz y Blasco (1838-1913), had a fixation on doves and pigeons. That was the only motif he painted. /Mats https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jos%C3%A9_Ruiz_y_Blasco

He painted them rather well - but then if that was all he painted..... perhaps it's not surprising.

One day, before he went out, he told little Pablo to copy a dove's foot from one of his paintings. When he came back, Pablo had surpassed his father and painted the dove's foot excellently. Then he knew that Pablo would become a great artist. /Mats
