Homme Au Cornet
1979-1982

About the Item

Surrounded by a charcoal background, the male figure at the center of this Pablo Picasso print appears illuminated by the light emanating from the upper right corner. Infused with a series of flesh tones that contrast with the cool blue and green shadows, this representation of a man is striking and angular. A classic example of the artist's Cubist technique, the work contains a multitude of perspectives merged into one. A lithograph from the Marina Picasso Estate Collection after the Pablo Picasso painting "Homme Au Cornet". The original painting was completed in 1938. In the 1970's after Picasso's death, Marina Picasso, his granddaughter, authorized the creation of this lithograph by Laurent Marcel Salinas, who worked closely with Picasso during his lifetime. The limited edition print run was completed and published by Marina Picasso in conjunction with Jackie Fine Arts in 1982. The lithograph is printed on French Arches paper, ink-stamped by the Estate verso, and hand-signed and numbered by Marina Picasso on the recto. The embossed seal of the Estate is lower right and the printer's chop, lower left. The work is presented in a beautiful museum frame using all acid-free conservation materials.
