About the Item

This exquisite lithograph after Pablo Picasso (1881–1973), titled Femme se chaussant (Woman Putting on Her Shoe), from the album Les Cavaliers d'Ombre; Sous le Manteau de Feu (The Horsemen of Shadow; Under the Cloak of Fire), originates from the 1956 edition published by L'Academie francaise, Paris, under the direction of Joseph Foret, Editeur, Paris, and printed by Mourlot Freres, Paris, June 20, 1956. Femme se chaussant (Woman Putting on Her Shoe) captures the intimacy and elegance of a private moment rendered with the fluid spontaneity that defines Picasso's late lithographs. Executed during a period when the artist’s creative energy found expression across painting, ceramics, and graphic work, this composition reflects his fascination with the female form as a timeless symbol of grace, sensuality, and renewal. Executed as a lithograph on velin paper, this work measures 9.84 x 6.69 inches. Signed in the plate and unnumbered as issued. The edition exemplifies the masterful craftsmanship of Mourlot Freres, Paris, under the supervision of Joseph Foret, Editeur, Paris.

The print run was limited to CCC examples, with the colophons numbered from I to CCC. Reproduction rights of illustrations, S. P. A. D. E. M., Paris. About the Publication: Les Cavaliers d'Ombre; Sous le Manteau de Feu (The Horsemen of Shadow; Under the Cloak of Fire) was published in Paris in 1956 under the direction of Joseph Foret, one of the most visionary and ambitious art publishers of the mid-20th century. Produced in collaboration with L'Academie francaise and printed by the renowned Mourlot Freres studio, the volume represents the synthesis of literature, art, and spirituality that characterized Foret’s projects. Known for his dedication to uniting the creative disciplines, Foret produced a number of monumental livre d'artiste editions that featured original lithographs by modern masters, among them Picasso, Dali, and Cocteau. This edition was completed on June 20, 1956, and limited to 300 examples, each printed on fine velin paper. Picasso’s Femme se chaussant complements the literary and allegorical themes of the album, translating the poetic energy of the text into visual form. The lithograph stands as a testament to the era’s collaborative spirit between artists, writers, and publishers, merging fine printing with modern art in an enduringly elegant edition. 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, Picassos 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 Christies, New York, on May 11, 2015, affirming Picassos enduring legacy as one of the most influential and valuable artists in history.
