Picasso enjoys a cigarette in the comfort of his bentwood rocker in his studio, 1957

Photograph by David Douglas Duncan


“The younger generation perhaps thinks that Picasso was mysterious. He wasn’t in the least. On the other hand, there is a mystery as far as I’m concerned. I’ve photographed him some 25,000 times, and each time he seemed perfectly normal, the same as anyone else, except for his eyes. He used to laugh, he was always very attentive to what you were saying, he was interested in you. But when I was with him, I never managed to ascertain what he was thinking.” Despite what David Douglas Duncan suggests with these words, his images are deemed to constitute one of the best explorations aimed at understanding Picasso and his works.
