Notes: From the folio, Les Métamorphoses, eaux-fortes originales de Picasso, 1970. Published by Albert Skira, éditeur, Lausanne; printed by Éditions d'Art Albert Skira, Genève, 1970. Excerpted from the folio (translated from French), The original edition, Des Métamorphoses D'Ovide, full text of the association Guillaume Budé, established and translated by Georges Lafaye, is illustrated with thirty original etchers by Picasso. The draw, completed on October twenty-five, nine hundred and thirty-one, in Paris, on the presses of Léon Pichon for typography, and by Louis Fort for engravings, was limited to CXLV examples, all numbered in the press and signed by the artist, namely: XXX examples on Japon blanc a la forme fabriqué spécialement par la manufacture impériale, including V examples, numbered from I to V, each containing a suite on Japon with remarks in bistre, a suite on Chine with remarks in black and an original drawing of the artist, and twenty-five examples, numbered from VI to XXX, Each containing a sequel on Japon with remarks in black; ninety-five examples, numbered from XXXI to CXXV, on a Vergé de pur chiffon fabriqué spécialement a la main par les papeteries d'Arches; and XX non-commerce examples, numbered in roman numerals from I to XX, reserved for the artist and collaborators. The coppers used to draw the illustrations were scratched by the artist in the presence of the publisher. This album has been presented to collectors and bibliophiles of the United States of America by Marie Harriman; this edition, 22 × 28 cm, was shot with Albert Skira's authorization on papier Vergé fin blanc des papeteries de Bellerive.
PABLO PICASSO (1881-1973) Spanish painter and sculptor is one of the most recognized figures of twentieth century art. During his artistic career, which lasted more than 75 years, he created thousands of works using all kinds of mediums. He changed art more profoundly than any other artist of his time. First famous for pioneering cubism, Picasso continued to develop his art with a pace and vitality comparable to the accelerated technological and cultural changes of the twentieth century. Each change embodied a radical idea, and might be said that Picasso lived several artistic lifetimes.
