About the Item

This pochoir after a gouache painting by Pablo Picasso is hand signed by the artist in pencil "Picasso" at the lower left margin. It is hand numbered 24 in pencil from the edition of 100, at the lower left margin. It is part of the series "Dix Pochoirs" of ten works by Pablo Picasso. This pochoir was based on a painting of the same period. The portfolio was published by Editions Galerie Rosenberg, Paris, 1920, in a limited edition of 100 signed and numbered impressions. The paper bears a partial watermark in the upper margin. The complete portfolio can be found in the collection of the Museum of Modern Art, New York. Note: Paul Rosenberg opened his gallery at No. 21 Rue La Boitie in 1911. Seven years later, Picasso moved into an apartment on the same street with his first wife, Olga Khokhlova, and the two men initiated a long personal and professional relationship. In 1919, Rosenberg opened an exhibition of Picasso's drawings and watercolours related to the artist's designs for Sergei Diaghilev's production of the ballet Le Tricorne. Dix Pochoirs was published around the same time, and they bear a strong resemblance to some of Picasso's set and costume designs for Parade, another ballet composed for Diaghilev's Ballet Russes in 1917. Picasso and many of his contemporaries such as Henri Matisse built a rich tradition of designing for the Ballet Russes, blending their distinctive visual styles with the company's ground-breaking choreography and music composed by the likes of Eric Satie and Igor Stravinsky. Also of note is the figure of the Harlequin, a comedic character traditionally dressed in checkered clothing that became a personal symbol for the artist throughout his Blue and Rose periods, to be replaced in later works by the mythological figure of the minotaur. Pierrot and Harlequin is thus a classic example of Picasso's early work as an artist, and also represents the unparalleled scope of his vision and creativity in bringing his artistry to bear on the worlds of music and dance. Condition: Very good condition. There are minor areas of pochoir thinning in the blue and white areas. There are hairline cracks in the green and brown areas. This is consistent with the medium and this particular suite of pochoirs due to the hand printing and age.
