About the Item

Lithograph on Arches wove paper. Unsigned and unnumbered, as issued. Good condition. Notes: From the volume, Pablo Picasso, Toros y Toreros, 1961. Published by aux Éditions Cercle d'Art; printed by Mourlot Frères, Paris, April-June 1961. Excerpted from the volume (translated from French), This volume published by Charles Feld and carried out under his direction was printed during the Second Quarter, One Thousand Nine Hundred and Sixty-One with the collaboration for the illustrations, Imprimerie Moderne du Lion; for the typography, L'Imprimerie Union; for the photograving, Bosson et Auclair; for the binding, Barast et Adine; for the lithography, Fernand Mourlot. Examples numbered from I to CXXV and XXV non-commerce examples for the artist and his friends numbered from CXXV to CL. These examples are enriched of an original lithograph signed and a series of drawings drawn on Arches paper. In addition, the examples numbered from I to V have a lithograph enhanced by the artist. One of the great charms of Picasso's sketchbooks is the way they reflect the drive and spontaneity of the artist. Quick release of the swarming images was all that mattered; whether pages were upside-down, smudged and splattered, thumb-printed or rubbed—all these were trifles, non-existent. But we have reproduced the sheets exactly as they are in the sketchbooks, "blemishes" and all, and even the paper for these facsimiles was specially grained and tinted to approximate the original. That is perhaps why the drawings in this book seem almost a personal communication to the viewer, from the hand of the artist. 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.
