One of the most celebrated living artists in Latin America, Fernando Botero has gained international fame capturing the whimsy of life by painting corpulent and comical figures. His wide ranging subject matter is deeply rooted in his South American heritage and includes portraits, bordello scenes, nudes, bullfights, landscapes and still lifes. The paintings and drawings collected in this book provide a comprehensive overview of the artist's work in both media and a fascinating glimpse into his unique artistic world.
