Summary:

Picasso was an extremely prolific artist, and there remain many little-known, rarely seen works that have been held in private collections. In the fall of 2001, Milan's Palazzo Reale presents an exhibition of many of these works, which are also featured in this spectacular oversized art book. It is alive with splashes of brilliant color and is a distinguished addition to any art bookshelf, featuring 300 illustrations that cover oil paintings, aquatints, prints, sculpture, and terracottas, as well as textiles such as the Ballet Russe costumes Picasso created for Diaghilev.-- This is the first book devoted to encompassing all of Picasso's works of art -- including terracottas, sculpture, textiles, and costume design.-- The important volume includes many rarely seen works of art by Picasso and is lavishly illustrated with more than 300 color plates.
