ISBN10: 0679737251, ISBN13: 9780679737254, [publisher: Random House USA Inc, New York] Softcover Paperback.

Bergerone of this centurys most insightful cultural historianstrains his penetrating gaze upon this most prodigious and enigmatic painter and on the Spanish landscape and very particular culture that shaped his life and work. Writing with a novelists sensuous evocation of character and detail, and drawing on an erudition that embraces history, politics, and art, Berger follows Picasso from his childhood in Malaga to the Blue Period and Cubism, from the creation of Guernica to the painted etchings of his final years.
