His lively and incisive analysis of the work meshes seamlessly with the rich and detailed narrative of this complex and sensual life.The Triumphant Years reveals Picasso at the height of his powers, producing not only the costumes and sets for such Diaghilev Ballets Russes productions as Parade and Tricorne but some of his most important sculpture and paintings.

From then on the horrors of war would replace any private horrors, leading ultimately to Picassos masterpiece, Guernica.
