The draftsman / in three volumes / Jean Jouvet

Pablo Ruiz Picasso: Painter, graphic artist, sculptor, co-founder of Cubism and creator of the ›Demoiselles d'Avignon‹ and ›Guernica‹, two key works of classical modernism. An artist for whom two museums were set up during his lifetime and whose white dove became the worldwide symbol of the peace movement - there is hardly a superlative that has not been applied to him, his life and work fills hundreds of books. ›The Draftsman‹ contains three hundred drawings and prints by Picasso as well as three essays on the different periods of his work, a biography of the years 1881-1973 and a selected bibliography.
