Degas: Beyond ImpressionismDegas, Edgar;Kendall, Richard;Art Institute of Chicago;National Gallery Great Britain

Your Satisfaction is Guaranteed:
In Picasso and Portraiture, the hundreds of works reproduced illustrate the multiple solutions Picasso invented to solve the "problem" of the modernist portrait. This book opens with an authoritative essay by William Rubin, Director Emeritus of The Museum of Modern Art's Department of Painting and Sculpture; the eight essays that follow--all by contemporary critics--examine different periods and aspects of Picasso's career and clarify personal relationships between him and his subjects. Numerous outstanding photographs, some never before published and many by outstanding photographers, present the portrait subjects as seen through the eye of the camera.
"...[A] stunning assemblage of portraits in which the autobiographical element is overt..."
A. M. Homes, Los Angeles Times Book Review, 12/08/1996
Review:"With the blockbuster comes the blockbook, of which "Picasso and Portraiture" is a remarkable example. Huge and nearly to heavy to read in an armchair, let along lug around the exhibition, it is produced to incredible high standards of book production by the Department of Publication of the Museum of Modern Art..."
Charles Saumarez Smith, Spectator
