From the foremost Picasso scholar, the first volume of his Life of Picasso draws on Richardson s close friendship with Picasso, his own diaries, the collaboration of Picasso s widow Jacqueline, and unprecedented access to Picasso s studio and papers to arrive at a profound understanding of the artist and his work. Combining meticulous scholarship with irresistible narrative appeal, this definitive biography of one of the greatest artists of the twentieth century details the years 1881-1906, from Picasso s beginnings in Spain to age twenty-five in Paris. With more than 800 extraordinary black-and-white illustrations.
