This volume does not discuss his biography or his stylistic phases, however, but pays tribute to the individual fates of the women who left their mark on the artist's life. Personalities like Françoise Gilot and Dora Maar are among those whose entire life and creative work are acknowledged, not just the years they spent at Picasso's side.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe book sketches the life of ten women in the life of the Spanish artist. Picasso was close to his mother throughout her life and chose her maiden name as his artist's name. When he wanted to marry the Russian ballerina Olga Khokhlova, she warned him that he would remain married to painting throughout his life. They separated in 1935; the reason was his young muse Marie-Thérèse Walter, who was also soon deposed by Dora Maar. Following various separations, women like the young artist Françoise Gilot also disappeared from Picasso's canvases, but did not vanish entirely. \u003cem\u003ePicasso\u003c\/em\u003e pays tribute to them all.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003ePresented women:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDoña Maria Picasso y Lopez (Picasso's mother)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMaria Dolores Ruiz Picasso (Picasso's sister)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGertrude Stein\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFernande Olivier\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eEva Gouel (Marcelle Humbert)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOlga Khokhlova\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMarie-Thérèse Walter\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDora Maar\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFrançoise Gilot\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eJaqueline Roque\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Thames and Hudson (Australia) Pty Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47487450448108,"sku":"9783777437262","price":78.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/b36ba26e626dc3ade224cef6b5d332d2.jpg?v=1775776696"},{"product_id":"cahiers-dart-39th-year-special-issue-2015-picasso-in-the-studio-by-elizabeth-cowling-9782851171832","title":"Cahiers d'Art 39th Year Special Issue 2015: Picasso in the Studio","description":"\u003cdiv class=\"book-description\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis special issue of the revue reveals rare and previously unpublished photographs illustrating Picasso in his studio and his work in progress.
