{"product_id":"roe-sue-hidden-portraits","title":"Roe, Sue - Hidden Portraits","description":"A reappraising history of the remarkable women who Pablo Picasso shared his life with - whose individual\nstories and influence on the artist have been overlooked\nuntil now\nFernande Olivier, Olga Khokhlova, Marie-Therese Walter, Dora Maar, Francoise\nGilot, and Jacqueline Roque. These six extraordinary women shared\nPablo Picasso’s life and were instrumental in his career, yet they have long\nbeen dismissed as simply passive models or muses.\nHidden Portraits reveals that their lives were - without exception - riveting\nand remarkable. All six were unconventional, independent and talented. All\nsix were severely tested, both by Picasso’s subterfuges and betrayals, and\nthe wider social turbulence they lived through. The extent to which each\ninfluenced Picasso’s art in major new directions has never been fully acknowledged.\nSue Roe delves deeply into the truth of the women’s experiences for the\nfirst time, to tell the story of Picasso’s women from their point of view.\nHer enthralling book spans seventy years, from Bohemian early 20th century\nMontmartre to the glittering Riviera in the 1920s, through Paris under Nazi\noccupation and beyond Picasso’s final years of seclusion.\nThe result is a riveting, atmospheric read about six fascinating and charismatic\nwomen, outstanding in their own time, whose individual stories have up to\nnow been glossed over or hidden from view.","brand":"Faber \u0026 Faber Non Fiction","offers":[{"title":"Paperback Book","offer_id":50907755872534,"sku":"RMX-59995","price":12.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0839\/7750\/2998\/files\/d39ff71ca13af12831f4e9c6e2420fad.jpg?v=1767708540","url":"https:\/\/resident-music-uk.myshopify.com\/products\/roe-sue-hidden-portraits","provider":"Resident Music UK","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
