About this episode
A bombshell memoir by a former lover annoys and embarrasses Picasso in his final years. But it is only half a century after his death that his misogyny is seen as truly problematic. And leaves many now grappling with how to separate the art from the artist.

The Woman in a Chair, Pablo Picasso (1948)
Seated Woman in Green, Pablo Picasso (1953)
Self Portrait Facing Death, Pablo Picasso (1972)
