Talk about #bookshelfwealth! This gem of a Picasso book shines with or without the jacket. 1,235 Illustrations, with 798 in full color.
This oversized beauty includes an extensive overview of Picasso's entire artistic career, covering various periods, styles, and mediums he used.
From a review : "Smoothly translated from the French, the book weaves biographical detail and discussions of the art into a concise narrative. ("Olga became pregnant in the summer of 1920, and in Picasso's work forms blossomed and flesh took on the massive quality of stone.") The three authors are all experts--Léal and Bernadac are (respectively) present and former curators of the Musée Picasso in Paris, and Piot coauthored the catalogue raisonné of Picasso's sculpture".
All books are packaged carefully and shipped with tracking. *Please note, this is a large book.
