About the Item

This exquisite lithograph after Pablo Picasso (1881–1973), titled Le Cheval (The Horse), from the album, Picasso 1930-1935, 1936, originates from the 1936 edition published by Editions des Cahiers d'Art, Paris, under the direction of Christian Zervos, Editeur, Paris, and printed by Mourlot Freres, Paris, 1936. Le Cheval (The Horse) captures the vitality and symbolic power of Picasso’s imagery during one of the most experimental and transformative phases of his career. The work reflects Picasso’s evolving approach to form, motion, and expression in the early 1930s—a period marked by a synthesis of Surrealist influence, classical monumentality, and deeply personal allegory. Through the elegant economy of line and tonal nuance, Le Cheval stands as both a study in movement and an emblem of Picasso’s mastery in translating psychological intensity into visual rhythm. Executed as a lithograph on velin paper, this work measures 7.48 x 10.63 inches. Unsigned and unnumbered as issued. The edition exemplifies the refined craftsmanship of Editions des Cahiers d'Art and the technical excellence of Mourlot Freres, the foremost Parisian lithographic atelier of the 20th century. Artwork Details: Artist: After Pablo Picasso (1881–1973) Title: Le Cheval (The Horse), from the album, Picasso 1930-1935, 1936 Medium: Lithograph on velin paper Dimensions: 7.48 x 10.63 inches (19 x 27 cm) Inscription: Unsigned and unnumbered as issued Date: 1936 Publisher: Editions des Cahiers d'Art, Paris, under the direction of Christian Zervos, Editeur, Paris Printer: Mourlot Freres, Paris Condition: Well preserved, consistent with age and medium Provenance: From the album, Picasso 1930-1935, published by Editions des Cahiers d'Art, Paris, under the direction of Christian Zervos, Editeur, Paris, and printed by Mourlot Freres, Paris, 1936 About the Publication: The album Picasso 1930-1935 was issued in 1936 by Editions des Cahiers d'Art, Paris, under the direction of Christian Zervos, as part of his monumental effort to document and disseminate the evolution of modern art through both print and scholarship. Dedicated entirely to the artist’s work from this pivotal five-year period, the album presented a series of lithographs that reflected Picasso’s transition from the Surrealist-inspired dream imagery of the early 1930s to the monumental figuration and mythological symbolism that culminated in Guernica (1937). Printed by Mourlot Freres, the leading Parisian lithographic workshop of its era, the album exemplified the technical and aesthetic ideals of Cahiers d'Art publications—uniting fine printing, academic rigor, and visual innovation. Zervos’s collaboration with Picasso during this period laid the foundation for the celebrated multi-volume Catalogue Raisonne des Oeuvres de Picasso, which would ultimately span thirty-three volumes and remain the definitive record of the artist’s work. The 1936 album stands as one of the most significant early printed tributes to Picasso’s interwar oeuvre, merging scholarly ambition with the artisanal excellence of modern French printmaking. 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.
