Picasso à L'oeuvre – Photographs by Edward Quinn 1965 Book

About the Item

Picasso à L'oeuvre – Photographs by Edward Quinn 1965 Published by Manesse-Verlag, 1965. An intimate photographic biography by Edward Quinn with text written by Roland Penrose. Wonderful photographs capturing Picasso working and relaxing, from his finished pieces to his home and studio - including intimate interior and still life shots. Illustrated in black and white, and colour plates, Quinn said of photographing Picasso: "I was very excited in this atmosphere. Picasso's all-commanding presence, his reputation as an artist, and the fact that I was seeing him at work for the first time spurred me on to preserve those intense, quickly passing moments. I felt secure enough to experiment more than I usually did, choosing different angles and making use of unusual lighting conditions." Text in French.
