Find of the Week: TASCHEN's Basic Art Series

This is just one example of the books from TASCHEN's Basic Art Series.
I have seen them around before but never really paid attention, as I prefer coffee table books on art. But on my last trip to the National Gallery, mainly due to the very disappointing Gift Shop selection on the day, I flicked through a Picasso book and decided to get it to read on the tube,
as it’s a perfect size/weight combo for my Chanel :)
Anyway, the book is a quick summary of the Picasso’s life and his work from the Blue to Rose periods, full of illustrations of his paintings.
All in all - a perfect companion for the Tube ride!
It is like a “Grazia” version of a full-featured book on Picasso :)
