Synopsis

Most people consider Pablo Picasso the most important artist of the twentieth century. Picasso experimented with different art styles all his life. In the early 1900s, he and Georges Braque began painting subjects from more than one angle in the same picture. Because they also broke up images into geometric shapes, such as cubes, their style became known as Cubism. This book is an exciting examination of Picasso's life, and features early works, as well as the masterpieces Les Demoiselles d'Avignon, The Three Musicians, and Guernica.
