THE BURIAL OF THE COUNT ORGAZ y OTHERS POEMS

Pablo Picasso may be the most famous and influential artist of the twentieth century. What few know is that in 1935, at age 54, Pica sso stopped painting, and for a time devoted himself entirely to poetry. Even after eventually resuming his visual work, Picasso con tinued to write, in a characteristic torrent, until 1959 - leaving a body of poems that Andre Breton praised as, an intimate journal , both of the feelings and the senses, such as has never been kept before.
