This latest addition to the Masters of Art Series continues the
fine tradition of handsomely illustrated stories established by Peter
Bedrick Books about the lives and times of famous artists. The elaborate colorful spreads trace Picasso's prolific career with high-quality
reproductions, photographs, and informative text and captions. Detailed
illustrations provide glimpses of the artist at work during various
stages of his life. Together, the illustrations and text explore the
historical and artistic background of Picasso's era, his technique,
and the meaning of his work. One of the featured spreads is
Picasso's Three Musicians. This is a good introductory book to
Picasso for all age groups and is highly recommended for young readers
at the middle school level.
