To commemorate the 50th anniversary of Picasso's death, this spectacular volume of the artist's early paintings and sculptures is being reissued. The paintings from his so-called Blue and Rose periods to early Cubism, created between 1901 and 1907, are milestones on Picasso's path to becoming the most famous artist of the twentieth century. In 2019, the Fondation Beyeler presented some 80 masterpieces from renowned museums and private collections in its most prestigious exhibition to this date. They are not only among the most valuable works of art ever to exist, but are widely viewed as some of modernism's most beautiful and emotive artworks. This volume brings the early work of this exceptional artist to life in a unique way.
