Tamayo. As new in as new jacket. Little, Brown and Company, c1999. First Edition. 1/6000 copies. Illlustrated in color throughout. Oversize 4to. As new unread hardcover, as new d/j.
Multiple articles and interviews about Tamayo establish the reality, rather than the perpetuation of the myth that envelops around a famous artist by his own hand or others. Interesting. Insightful. However, a shortcoming of the book lies primarily in the number of images portrayed of various paintings, some of which are mentioned in the text.
