Picasso and the art of drawing
In this generously illustrated and lively book, Christopher Lloyd sets out and interprets the lifelong achievement of Picasso (1881-1973) as a draftsman. Although there have been many publications about his drawings that have tended to focus on particular periods of his career, this stunning volume specifically examines how drawing serves as the vital thread connecting all of Picasso's art, just as it also links his private world with his public persona of which he was becoming increasingly aware in his later years. Picasso and the Art of Drawing ultimately showcases how the basis of the titular artist's style as painter, sculptor, printmaker, and designer was manifestly achieved through drawing.
BOOK
The drawings of Vincent van Gogh
\"A compelling and authoritative overview of the drawings of Vincent van Gogh, one of the most celebrated and intriguing figures in the history of art. Vincent van Gogh's (1853-1890) drawings are some of the most familiar and expressive in the history of art. Vincent van Gogh believed that drawing was the 'root of everything'. This was reflected in the remarkable number of more than a thousand graphic works produced by the artist during his short, dramatic life - many of them personal, often lonely explorations of the emerging modern world, anxieties that still speak to us today\"-- From publisher's website.

Paul Câezanne : drawings and watercolors
\"This beautifully illustrated volume traces the development of Câezanne's style through his works on paper. Diverse in subject matter and execution, his drawings and watercolors include copies of other masters' works, studies of his immediate family and their domestic surroundings, and preliminary ideas for finished compositions. They reveal Câezanne as someone deeply committed to devising a process for comprehending and recording the world as he saw it. The result is some of the most absorbing art ever created.\"--Publisher's website.
