Much of Picasso's early work, unknown during his lifetime and hidden in warehoused studios, is now archived and can be studied. This catalog is a rich opportunity to view much work of his formative years?on loan from collections around the world?currently on display at the National Gallery in Washington, D.C., and traveling to the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, in the fall. Editor McCully, a collaborator with John Richardson on the first volume of his landmark A Life of Picasso (LJ 2/1/91), provides an opening chronology to facilitate an appreciation of the show. Ranging from the political to the technical, the remaining scholarly essays describe a young, idealistic, and pre-Cubist Picasso in the process of learning, influenced by all the changing elements around him and deeply introspective. They provide differing ways of seeing the artist based on new knowledge about him. The book is fully illustrated with 115 black-and-white and 200 color plates, many from the artist's blue- and rose-period paintings. Recommended for all modern art collections.?Ellen Bates, M.L.S., New York
