About this product

Product Information

The Sorcerer's Apprentice is John Richardson's vivid memoir of the time he spent living with and learning from the deeply knowledgeable and temperamental art collector, Douglas Cooper. For ten years the two entertained a circle of friends that included Jean Cocteau, W. H. Auden, Tennessee Williams, and, most intriguingly, Pablo Picasso. Compulsively readable and beautifully illustrated, this book is both a triple portrait of the author, Cooper, and Picasso, and a revealing look at a crucial artistic period.

Praise for John Richardson'sA Life of Picasso "As I read it, my education simply advanced by one great step. It is like being in a clock tower when one of the big cogwheels moves forward by one notch -- a great, simple, fundamental event." -- James Fenton,Leonardo's Nephew: Essays on Art and Artists
