Beautiful Dreamers: The Watched Watchers of Picasso and Joyce

Pre-ramble: These musings were inspired by reading one of the essays in Other Criteria: Confrontations with Twentieth-Century Art by Leo Steinberg. The essay in question, Picasso's Sleepwatchers, raised certain resonances with Finnegans Wake. The book is vitally interesting in a general sense far beyond looting for quotatoes. A remainder floated into my awareness in the tail end of winter nap reverie.
