- Pablo Picasso was one of the most frequently photographed celebrities of the last century. Virtually all of the great twentieth-century portraitists photographed him, including Cecil Beaton, Henri Cartier-Bresson, Robert Doisneau, Man Ray, Irving Penn and Lee Miller. Photo Portraits of Picasso gathers these portraits for the first time, examining the often tense relationship between Picasso"s control of his public persona and the intentions of the photographers. Ranging from classic staged sittings - some commissioned by Picasso himself - to more spontaneous snapshots, the portraits in this volume are a record of the artist"s sustained, lifelong construction of his public identity. Other photographers included are Rogi Andre, Richard Avedon, Bill Brandt, Brassai, Rene Burri, Robert Capa, Lucien Clergue, Jean Cocteau, Denise Colomb, David Douglas Duncan, Jaques-Henri Lartigue, Herbert List, Dora Maar, Madame d"Ora, Willy Maywald, Gjon Mili, Inge Morath, Arnold Newman, Roberto Otero, Edward Quinn, Gotthard Schuh, Michel Sima and Andre Villiers.
