by Natalia Price-Cabrera (Author)
Many people know that Pablo Picasso (1881-1973) was a Spanish painter, sculptor, printmaker and poet, a pioneer of Modernism and Cubism whose works include 'Les Demoiselles D'Avignon'. What, perhaps, they don't know is that his full name is 23 words long; that he painted 15 different versions of 'Les Femmes D'Algers', one of which sold in 2015 for $179 million; that doctors thought he was stillborn until his uncle blew cigar smoke into his face; and that he was interviewed by police over the theft of the 'Mona Lisa'. Biographic: Picasso presents a modern study of his life and work, with an array of irresistible facts and figures converted into infographics to reveal the artist behind the pictures.
