Picasso: The Royan Sketchbooks brings together for the first time the eight books of sketches made by Picasso during his stay in this French town on the Atlantic coast. It contextualises them along with other drawings, gouaches, paintings, a palette and poems he produced during this period, as well as a group of works produced by his partner, the artist and photographer Dora Maar. Together, the pieces on show shed light on an especially prolific period in Picasso’s life and artistic career.
