Geometrical vision for today's generation.

I purchased this book to grasp an understanding about the group of paintersknow as the Cubists. Sure we all know about Picasso and his cubist phases. But I wanted a discourse on the other members of the group. This book is wonderfully translated by Peter Read from the original 1913 printing by Guillaume Apollinaire. Apollinaire witnessed the blossoming and development of the Cubist movement firsthand. His writings not being the quinessential Cubist "history" book nonetheless is quite an enjoyable read. Being a close friend of the Cubists he brings an aire of what each of the members of the group brought to the movement. At times his writing is poetic and even dramatic. A prose style incorporating anecdotes and lyrical passeges. And that is the fresh perspective which this montage brings.
