[Signed] Gilot, Françoise. Matisse and Picasso, A Friendship in Art. First Edition. 1990. Book and dust jacket are both in very good condition.
In a review of the exhibition “Matisse and Picasso: A Gentle Rivalry,” Jacob Weisberg asserted that though it is possible to admire both artists, it is impossible not to choose sides, “everyone is either a Matisse person or Picasso person.” One might expect Gilot to favor Picasso. After all, she was his longtime mistress and the mother of two of his children. However, she was Matisse’s great friend. In this memoir in Socratic dialog format, Gilot works through her feelings on the subject. Given the author’s personal connection to the subject matter, it is a great title in which to own a signed copy.
