| This was the first complete work on the life of Picasso to appear in English. He is probably the most famous painter of the twentieth century and this has become the definitive biography. The man that emerges is one of many contradictions; hard and tender, mean and generous, affectionate and cold. In his later years he professed communism and at all stages identified himself with advanced and radical opinion. Yet he was profoundly superstitious and retained (in his biographer's view,) a residually Catholic mentality. He did not however, allow this to interfere with his vigorous sensuality; sex and money, eating and drinking, friends and quarrels, comedies and tragedies, suicides and wars all tumble over each other in chaos which followed him throughout his life.
