"A brilliant analysis of the picture and the situations of its creation. Rarely, if ever, have I read an account that was more satisfying. It is written in the most clear, concise, and elegant fashion with no wasted words or self-consciously elegant prose. Chipp beautifully documents Picasso's personality and attitudes toward his work, his personal relationships, and his political beliefs. This book is, in many ways, a neat and compact introduction to Picasso as a human being as well as an artist."--Edward J. Sullivan, New York UniversityChipp, Herschel B. is the author of 'Picasso's Guernica: History, Transformations, Meanings', published 1993 under ISBN 9780520079472 and ISBN 0520079477.
