A lovely assemblage of (mostly) black and white photos of Picasso in his final years: at work, at play, with friends, etc. These are interlarded with lots of purported conversations and interviews, which have the ring of truth about them. Somewhat confusingly, these are presented non-chronologically, so that I ended up reading the book forwards and backwards in order to make sense of it all. Not that the point is to "make sense" of Picasso, but I just prefer to read things in chronological order, given the choice. Anyways, a nice large-sized book, very much of its time (late 60s to early 70s) in decor and style.
