She soon became the subject of hundreds of Picasso's drawings, paintings, and sculptures -- one towering thirty-six-feet high. Sylvette subsequently devoted her life to painting, and in 2017 she published her memoir, I Was Sylvette, co-authored with her daughter, the sculptor Isabel Coulton. Sylvette's latest series of watercolors, commissioned for this book, portray the blind art collector Léon Angély and his precocious child guide, who each unwittingly served to inspire one of Picasso's greatest engravings.view less
