About the Item
This exquisite lithograph after Pablo Picasso (1881–1973), titled Deux Baigneuses (Two Bathers), from the album Le manuscrit trouve dans un chapeau, orne de dessins a la plume par Pablo Picasso (The Manuscript Found in a Hat, Adorned with Pen Drawings by Pablo Picasso), originates from the 1919 edition published by Societe litteraire de France, Paris, and printed by Reymond S.A., Lausanne, August 25, 1919. Deux Baigneuses (Two Bathers) reflects Picasso’s classical refinement and sensitivity to the human form in the period following World War I. The composition, executed with delicate linear economy, captures two reclining female figures rendered in a manner that unites simplicity of contour with rhythmic harmony. This period marked Picasso’s return to the figure and classical ideals after his Cubist innovations, translating balance, grace, and restraint into timeless modern form. The illustration embodies his dialogue between abstraction and naturalism, a balance that defined much of his work between 1918 and 1924.
Executed as a lithograph on velin des papeteries Lafuma paper, this work measures 8.27 x 6.1 inches. Unsigned and unnumbered as issued. The edition exemplifies the exceptional craftsmanship of Reymond S.A., Lausanne, under the direction of Societe litteraire de France, Paris.

About the Publication:
Le manuscrit trouve dans un chapeau (The Manuscript Found in a Hat), published in 1919 by Societe litteraire de France, stands among the earliest and most refined literary collaborations of Pablo Picasso’s post-Cubist period. Conceived as a poetic and visual synthesis, the book unites text and illustration in a dialogue of rhythm and line, revealing the artist’s shift toward classical serenity after the radical experimentation of Cubism. The volume, printed on velin des papeteries Lafuma and illustrated with pen drawings reproduced by Reymond S.A., Lausanne, demonstrates the meticulous standards of early 20th-century French fine press publishing. Each plate exemplifies Picasso’s linear mastery and his sensitivity to the human figure, balancing grace and abstraction. The edition, limited to 750 numbered examples, reflects the artisanal quality and intellectual elegance that defined the Societe litteraire de France’s publications. The book’s restrained aesthetic, combining the literary with the visual, prefigured Picasso’s later collaborations with poets such as Paul Eluard and Pierre Reverdy, and remains a landmark in the history of modern illustrated books.
About the Artist:
Pablo Picasso (1881–1973) was a Spanish painter, sculptor, printmaker, and ceramicist whose extraordinary vision revolutionized modern art and defined the visual language of the 20th century. A child prodigy from Malaga, Spain, Picasso's career spanned more than seven decades and encompassed an astonishing range of styles and innovations—from the melancholic Blue and romantic Rose periods to his pioneering invention of Cubism with Georges Braque, which shattered conventional notions of perspective and form. Influenced by the bold expressiveness of El Greco, the structure of Cezanne, and the vitality of African and Iberian sculpture, Picasso became a central figure of the Paris avant-garde, working in creative dialogue with contemporaries such as Henri Matisse, Alexander Calder, Alberto Giacometti, Salvador Dali, Joan Miro, Wassily Kandinsky, Marcel Duchamp, and Man Ray. His insatiable experimentation extended across painting, drawing, printmaking, ceramics, and sculpture, forever expanding the boundaries of artistic expression. A master of reinvention, Picasso profoundly shaped generations of artists who followed—from Andy Warhol, Roy Lichtenstein, David Hockney, and Jean-Michel Basquiat to Jeff Koons and Banksy—cementing his status as a timeless cultural icon whose works remain among the most sought after worldwide. His landmark painting Les Femmes d'Alger (Version O) achieved a record-breaking sale of 179,365,000 USD at Christie's, New York, on May 11, 2015, affirming Picasso's enduring legacy as one of the most influential and valuable artists in history.
