Picasso by Marina Picasso

Marina Picasso remembers being six years old and standing awkwardly in front of the gates of Picasso's grand house near Cannes. It was this that caused Marina's brother to commit suicide and when her father died Marina found herself in the ironic position of being one of the major heirs to Picasso's estate.
