Some sources mention that Picasso left Le Bateau-Lavoir in 1911. See http://www.ac-orleans-tours.fr/rdv-histoire/archives/2002/artiste.htm. olivier 17:22 Jan 20, 2003 (UTC)
- You are probably correct. My source says : "soon before the WWI broke out" and it seems I misinterpreted it. Please put it right. Kpjas 17:44 Jan 20, 2003 (UTC)
[edit] A Concern of Plagarism
While I was searching for the keywords 'Beateau-Lavoir,' I found this page on Wiki. Right below it was a source from answers.com. The openings of both pages are identical.
I'm concerned that the direct lifting of text from Answers.com may lead Wiki into serious cases involving direct plagarism. Especially because no sources outside Wiki are listed or cited in the article.

[edit] removed text
I removed the folllowing text from the bottom of the article:
From 1905 to the end of his stay at the Bateau Lavoir Françoise Olivier was the mate of the artist living with him and inspiring the "rose period" that is plenty of images of her. In 1906, namely after having spent part of the summer together in Spain, "la belle Françoise" appears in some of the first cubist paintings and her head is the only subject of a beginning cubist sculpture
This looks like a translation from the French. Maybe it might form the basis of useful material for the article, but it needs to be sourced, some context added, and the translation improved.
