Picasso

How is one to write about a man who was himself a legend? Pablo Picasso - no artist's name is more famous today, no artist's work more widely known. To do him full justice would require volumes; on the other hand, a mere sketch reduces an Olympian to a stick figure.
This book is neither a compendious study, nor a brief survey. With its text, picture commentaries, and lavish illustrations in color and in black-and-white, the reader will find his or her way to an introductory view or a concentrated review - depending on his or her previous knowledge of the master's career - of the full sweep of Picasso's phenomenal diversity and abundance.
