I love Picasso, warts and all. I have all the books. The last was not as full of info as the others. Richardson did not finish it. His staff did. Read them all a couple of times. I will miss his take on Pablo's last 30 years.
Robert, I remember how excited I was when the first Picasso volume by John Richardson came out.. Finding it on Prince Street, just west of Broadway at one of the book tables. There were several tables of art books on the sidewalk run by blacks… Many were mint condition new books; how they got them was a mystery. Don’t remember the exact price but it was perhaps half of the retail price marked on the inner flap of the book. It was a great buy for me. And a great read.
