About the Item

This exquisite collotype after Pablo Picasso (1881–1973), titled Profil de jeune fille (Profile of a Young Girl), originates from the rare 1957 folio 40 dessins de Picasso en marge du Buffon (Forty Drawings by Picasso in the Margin of Buffon). Published by Berggruen et Cie, Paris, under the direction of Henri Jonquieres, and printed by l'atelier de Georges Duval, Paris, this edition presents forty unpublished compositions created by Picasso as marginal drawings inspired by the writings of Georges-Louis Leclerc, Comte de Buffon. In Profil de jeune fille (Profile of a Young Girl), Picasso expresses feminine grace and youthful elegance with minimalist precision. A single fluid contour captures both serenity and vitality, demonstrating his unrivaled mastery of line as a vessel for emotion and identity. Executed on velin du Marais paper, this collotype measures 14.5 x 11.125 inches (36.83 x 28.26 cm). As issued, it is unsigned and unnumbered, consistent with the authorized 1957 publication format. This edition, printed in January 1957, captures the immediacy and vitality of Picasso’s Buffon drawings, revealing the artist’s playful engagement with both the subject matter and the act of drawing itself.

Condition: Well preserved, consistent with age and medium Provenance: From the 1957 folio 40 dessins de Picasso en marge du Buffon (Forty Drawings by Picasso in the Margin of Buffon), published by Berggruen et Cie, Paris Notes: Excerpted from the 1957 folio (translated from French): "Proposed by Henri Jonquieres, this album was made under his direction. The compositions, unpublished to date, were drawn on an example of the Buffon, published by Martin Fabiani, publisher in Paris, who has obligingly authorized the edition of the text and engraving plates. The original album belongs to Dora Maar. The printing of the plates was made in l'atelier de Duval, in Paris, and completed in January 1957, and that of the typography by l'imprimerie Priester Freres. MMCCXXVI examples were printed, namely: CCXXVI examples on velin a la forme d'Arches, including an original gouge engraving by Picasso, signed by him and printed on the press of Robert Blanchet, numbered from I to CCXXVI, and MM examples on velin du Marais, numbered from CCXXVII to MMCCXXVI. In addition, non-commercial examples, numbered in Roman numerals, were reserved for the collaborators." About the Artist: Pablo Picasso (1881–1973) was a Spanish painter, sculptor, printmaker, and ceramicist whose revolutionary vision redefined modern art in the 20th century. Born in Malaga, Spain, he demonstrated prodigious talent from an early age and trained in Barcelona and Madrid before moving to Paris, where he became the epicenter of avant-garde innovation. Picasso pioneered Cubism alongside Georges Braque, explored emotional depth through his Blue and Rose periods, and continually reinvented his style across thousands of works in painting, drawing, sculpture, and printmaking. His influence spans movements from Surrealism to abstraction, and his work remains central to global art history. The highest price ever paid for one of his artworks is approximately US $179.4 million for Les Femmes d'Alger (Version O) (1955).
