Dear Modernist Thanks for the clarification the Stalinist nomenclature is puzzling But here s one more detail on the citation Citation 23 at states that that Picasso recieved the Lenin Peace Prize in 1961 but is reported in the Picasso text as 1962 The Wiki source at says 1962 International Lenin Prize Can we use our wiki site as a source or is that considered bad form I m also adding a brief quotation from the surrealist Andre Breton historically this provides an insight into a leftist criticism of Picasso s Stalinist loyalties It also adds a rhetorical counterpoint to the Dali quote Mysweetoldetc
