On Holiday with Picasso

My Century

Available for over a year

Tony Penrose spent much of his childhood and adolescence staying with Pablo Picasso in the South of France. Picasso was to paint his mother Lee Miller four times. Tony Penrose recalls the artist, his studio, and life at La Californie, Picasso's house in the South of France. "I remember he smelt good. I remember a tangy smell of very strong soap mixed with Gauloises... Here was this wonderful, warm, very vibrant character."
