Description

Pablo Picasso's engagement with printmaking was a defining aspect of his long and varied artistic career. This book explores how the technical challenges of working in different print media inspired his creativity, and how his prints reflect his connections to a rich artistic lineage that stretches back to antiquity.

Through a stunning selection of works on paper, sculptures, drawings, and prints by Picasso and other artists, the book examines the ways in which printmaking influenced his artistic development. It also delves into the personal and professional relationships that shaped his work, including his relationships with his wives and lovers.

By shedding new light on Picasso's printmaking, this book argues for the importance of this activity in his overall artistic output, and its continued relevance as a testament to his innovative spirit and creative experimentation.
