About the Item

This exquisite heliogravure after Pablo Picasso (1881–1973), titled La Californie, Le jardin (The Garden at La Californie), from Verve, Revue Artistique et Litteraire, Vol. VII, No. 25–26, originates from the 1951 issue published by Editions de la revue Verve, Paris, under the direction of Teriade, Editeur, Paris, and printed by Draeger freres, Maitres-Imprimeurs, Paris, October 25, 1951. This composition captures Picasso’s vivid imagination and his deep connection to nature and domestic life during his postwar years in Vallauris and Cannes. La Californie, Le jardin reflects the artist’s fascination with the harmony between man, nature, and creativity, expressed through bold, dynamic forms and lyrical tonal relationships emblematic of his mature style. Executed as a heliogravure on velin du Marais paper, this work measures 10.5 x 14 inches. Unsigned and unnumbered as issued. The edition exemplifies the superb craftsmanship of the Draeger freres atelier, renowned for its collaborations with the leading modernists of the 20th century. Artwork Details: Artist: After Pablo Picasso (1881–1973) Title: La Californie, Le jardin (The Garden at La Californie), from Verve, Revue Artistique et Litteraire, Vol. VII, No. 25–26, 1951 Medium: Heliogravure on velin du Marais paper Dimensions: 10.5 x 14 inches Inscription: Unsigned and unnumbered as issued Date: 1951 Publisher: Editions de la revue Verve, Paris, under the direction of Teriade, Editeur, Paris Printer: Draeger freres, Maitres-Imprimeurs, Paris Condition: Well preserved, consistent with age and medium Provenance: From Verve, Revue Artistique et Litteraire, Vol. VII, No. 25–26, published by Editions de la revue Verve, Paris, 1951 Notes: Excerpted from the album (translated from French), This issue of Verve is entirely devoted to Picasso’s recent works (peintures, sculptures et ceramiques) made in Vallauris between 1949 and 1951. The cover and the frontispiece were specially composed by the artist for this work which was completed to print on the presses of the Maitres-Imprimeurs, Draeger freres on October 25, 1951. About the Publication: Verve, Revue Artistique et Litteraire was one of the most influential art periodicals of the 20th century, founded in Paris in 1937 by the visionary Greek-born publisher Teriade (Stratis Eleftheriades). Conceived as a synthesis of art and literature, Verve brought together the greatest modern artists and writers of its time—Henri Matisse, Pablo Picasso, Marc Chagall, Georges Braque, Joan Miro, Fernand Leger, and others—alongside poets and philosophers such as Paul Eluard, Albert Camus, and Jean-Paul Sartre. Each issue was a work of art in itself, luxuriously printed by master ateliers such as Mourlot Freres and produced in collaboration with leading typographers and designers. Verve became a platform for avant-garde creativity, publishing original lithographs, heliogravures, and essays that reflected the evolving spirit of modernism. Matisse collaborated closely with Teriade from the magazine’s inception, producing some of its most iconic issues, including those devoted to his paper cut-outs. The final Verve issue of 1958, which featured La Tristesse du Roi and the Nu Bleu series, stands as a testament to Matisse’s enduring genius and to the publication’s legacy as the definitive meeting of art, poetry, and printing craftsmanship in 20th-century 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 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.
