About the Item

This exquisite lithograph by Pablo Picasso (1881–1973), titled Les Banderilles (The Banners), from the album A Los Toros Avec Picasso (To the Bulls with Picasso), originates from the 1961 edition published by Andre Sauret, Paris, and printed by Mourlot Freres, Paris, September 1961. Les Banderilles (The Banderillas) reflects Picasso’s enduring fascination with the bullfight—an allegory of power, motion, and mortal beauty that recurred throughout his work. With expressive line and compositional rhythm, Picasso captures the moment of confrontation between man and beast, distilling the ritual of the arena into a study of tension, grace, and primal energy. The lithograph’s elegant simplicity and psychological immediacy exemplify Picasso’s mastery of line as a vehicle for emotion and symbolism. Executed as a lithograph on velin paper, this work measures 10 x 13.2 inches. Unsigned and unnumbered as issued. The edition exemplifies the superior craftsmanship of Mourlot Freres, Paris, and the editorial refinement of Andre Sauret, Paris.

The four original lithographs, including one in twenty-four colors, were printed on the presses of Mourlot Freres. The four original lithographs were made by Pablo Picasso especially for this volume. About the Publication: The album A Los Toros Avec Picasso (To the Bulls with Picasso), published by Andre Sauret, Paris, in 1961, stands as one of the most celebrated collaborations between Picasso and the art of fine bookmaking in mid-20th-century France. Conceived as a visual and literary homage to the world of the bullfight, the volume unites Picasso’s original lithographs with text and commentary exploring the symbolism, tradition, and aesthetic spectacle of the corrida. Executed under the direction of master printer Fernand Mourlot, the lithographs showcase the full range of Picasso’s graphic genius—from bold, linear abstraction to vibrant, painterly chromatic compositions. The publication exemplifies the exceptional standards of Andre Sauret’s art editions, merging scholarly insight with artistic innovation. A Los Toros Avec Picasso (To the Bulls with Picasso) remains a landmark in the history of 20th-century printmaking, embodying the fusion of literature, poetry, and image that defined the livre d’artiste tradition in postwar France. 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.
