Men and Memories - A History of the Arts 1872 to 1922 Being the Recollections of William Rothenstein V2 (Paperback)

1931. Volume 2 of 2. Sir William Rothenstein, amiable, bespectacled British artist who for five decades made competent portraits of celebrities, achieved celebrity himself with these anecdote-crammed memoirs about such famed friends as Pablo Picasso (the gigolo of geometry) and H.G. Wells (a great literary cartoonist). Sample Rothenstein sidelight on a celebrity: Albert Einstein once explained to him why an associate kept shaking his head as the great physicist talked: He is my mathematician, said Einstein, who examines problems which I put before him and checks their validity. You see, I am not myself a very good mathematician. A delightful and revealing read. Other volumes in this set are ISBN(s): 141793705X.
