Pablo Picasso carried a Lawrence holster

[turnerriver]

Here's a photo of Pablo Picasso with a hat, revolver and holster given to him by Gary Cooper. That's a Lawrence model 120 holster designed by Elmer Keith although it's pretty similar to a Tom Threepersons holster.
I'm trying to think of a current artist who might be photographed with a revolver and holster but I'm not coming up with one.

He kinda looks like ol Elmer Keith.. Swap the cigarette for a cigar....

Here's a couple pictures of Picasso and Gary Cooper, with that same revolver.
Seems like Picasso at least shot it on occasion!

Wow...How surreal.....or cubist. I guess it depends on the era!

I would've never guessed that I would see a picture of Pablo Picasso with a Lawrence holster and revolver!

I can't think of any artist that enjoyed shooting sports either. There might be a few but probably very small numbers! Artists tend to be on the other side of the debate and just not into or even very against guns. Who knows how "into guns" Picasso really was? Might have been just a passing curiosity.
