Pablo Picasso Art

Spanish, 1881-1973

One of the most prolific and revolutionary artists the world has ever seen, Pablo Picasso had a tremendous impact on the development of 20th-century modern art. Although he is best known for his association with the Cubist movement, which he founded with Georges Braque, Picasso’s influence extends to Surrealism, neoclassicism and Expressionism.

“Every act of creation is, first of all, an act of destruction,” the Spanish artist proclaimed. In Picasso's Cubist paintings, he emphasizes the two-dimensionality of the canvas, breaking with conventions regarding perspective, foreshortening and proportion. Picasso was inspired by Iberian and African tribal art. One of his most famous pre-Cubist works is Les Demoiselles d’Avignon (1907), a painting considered immoral and shocking at the time for its depiction of nude women whose faces resemble Iberian tribal masks.

Picasso made many portraits in this style, most often of the women in his life, their expressively colored faces composed of geometric shards of surface planes. In Woman in a Hat (Olga), 1935, he painted his first wife as an assemblage of abstract forms, leaving the viewer to decipher the subject through the contrasting colors and shapes. Picasso was a tireless artist, creating more than 20,000 paintings, drawings, prints, ceramics and sculptures. Tracing his life’s work reveals the progression of modern art, on which he had an unparalleled influence.

By Pablo Picasso

Located in Southampton, NY

This exquisite engraving by Pablo Picasso (1881–1973), titled Pour Roby (For Roby), from L’Age de Soleil (The Age of the Sun), originates from the 1950 edition published by Aux Depens de L’Auteur, Paris, under the direction of Robert-J. Godet, Paris; printed by Atelier Lacouriere-Frelaut, Paris, under the direction of Georges Leblanc, Paris, July 21, 1950. This compelling composition reflects Picasso’s mastery of intaglio technique, where incisive line and expressive distortion converge to translate poetic and symbolic subject matter into a powerful and evocative graphic language. Executed as an engraving on velin du Marais paper, this work measures 11.125 x 9.125 inches (28.26 x 23.18 cm). Signed in reverse in the plate and unnumbered as issued. The impression exemplifies the technical excellence and material sensitivity characteristic of Atelier Lacouriere-Frelaut’s celebrated editions. Artwork Details: Artist: Pablo Picasso (1881–1973) Title: Pour Roby (For Roby), from L’Age de Soleil (The Age of the Sun) Medium: Engraving on velin du Marais paper Dimensions: 11.125 x 9.125 inches (28.26 x 23.18 cm) Inscription: Signed in reverse in the plate and unnumbered as issued Date: 1950 Publisher: Aux Depens de L’Auteur, Paris Printer: Atelier Lacouriere-Frelaut, Paris Catalogue raisonne references: Bloch, Georges. Pablo Picasso: Catalogue of the Printed Graphic Work 1904–1967. Kornfeld & Klipstein, 1968, illustration 680; Cramer, Patrick. Pablo Picasso, The Illustrated Books: Catalogue Raisonne. Patrick Cramer, 1983, illustration 57. Condition: Well preserved, consistent with age and medium Provenance: From the folio L’Age de Soleil (The Age of the Sun), 1950 Notes: Excerpted from the folio (translated from French), This edition, constituting the original edition of the the work, has been limited to MCXIV examples, as follows: IV nominative examples on Arches, hand reserved for collaborators of the work; X examples on hand-made Arches with five states in black and color of the engraving, marked from A to J; C examples on velin du Marais with the black state of the engraving and numbered from I to C; M examples on velin including the rendering of the engraving and numbered from I to M. Printing was finished on July 21, 1950, under the direction of the author, on the presses of E. Durand, master printer in Paris for typography, and G. Leblanc, master engraver in Paris for engraving. About the Publication: L’Age de Soleil (The Age of the Sun), published in Paris in 1950 by Aux Depens de L’Auteur under the direction of Robert-J. Godet, is a distinguished illustrated edition that reflects Pablo Picasso’s continued engagement with poetic text, symbolic imagery, and the livre d’artiste tradition in the postwar period. Conceived as a highly refined collaboration between artist, author, printer, and engraver, the publication integrates original engravings by Picasso with a carefully structured typographic program executed by master printers in Paris. The edition was produced in multiple tiers on fine papers including Arches, velin du Marais, and velin, with select examples featuring additional states and variations of the engravings, demonstrating the technical and aesthetic ambitions of the project. Printed under the direction of Georges Leblanc for the engraving and E. Durand for typography, the publication exemplifies the highest standards of mid twentieth century French printmaking. Through its synthesis of text and image, L’Age de Soleil stands as an important example of Picasso’s contributions to illustrated editions, embodying his ability to translate poetic and symbolic themes into a compelling visual language while maintaining exceptional technical precision. 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.

Covering a period of extraordinary experimentation, the publication documents Picasso’s sustained engagement with lithography as an autonomous and innovative medium. Printed on grand velin Renage filigrane paper bearing the publisher’s watermark, the edition exemplifies the highest standards of mid twentieth century French art publishing, uniting rigorous documentation with masterful printing. The partnership between Picasso and the Mourlot atelier played a transformative role in advancing modern lithography, and this volume stands as an essential scholarly reference for collectors, museums, and historians.

Questions About Pablo Picasso Art
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 16, 2024
    To tell if your Picasso painting is real, experts recommend taking it to a knowledgeable appraiser or art dealer. Unlike prints, which can be purchased on the secondary market, authentic Picasso paintings are rarely found outside the collections of museums and well-established private collectors. However, there are many convincing fakes in existence. Someone with training and experience will be best able to verify the artist's signature, the brushwork of the painting, the canvas, the frame and other features to determine its authenticity.

    How much a Pablo Picasso drawing is worth depends on its size, complexity, historical significance, condition and other factors. One of his drawings, Étreinte, done in white wax crayon and pencil on red paper, sold for $4.9 million, while a simpler pen and ink wash on paper called Baigneuse et cabine de bains fetched a selling price of more than $623,000. One of the most prolific and revolutionary artists the world has ever seen, Pablo Picasso had a tremendous impact on the development of 20th-century modern art. Although he is best known for his association with the Cubist movement, which he founded with Georges Braque, Picasso’s influence extends to Surrealism, neoclassicism and Expressionism. If you own a Picasso drawing, a certified appraiser or knowledgeable art dealer can evaluate the piece and provide you with its estimated fair market value.

    Picasso's most famous piece is arguably Guernica, which he created in 1937. A black-and-white oil painting, it captures the horrors of war with its depiction of the German bombing of Guernica, Spain. Another of his well-known works is Les Demoiselles d'Avignon. When it was produced in 1907, the painting was considered immoral and shocking for how it showed nude women whose faces resembled Iberian tribal masks. Other notable works by Picasso include The Old Guitarist, Le Rêve, The Weeping Woman and Girl Before a Mirror. On 1stDibs, find a variety of Pablo Picasso art.
  • 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 22, 2021
    Pablo Picasso's style of artwork is called Cubism. This style of art was invented around 1907-08 by Pablo Picasso and Georges. Cubism is known for bringing multiple views of a subject together, resulting in fragmented and abstract painting.
  • 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 22, 2021
    Pablo Picasso is most famous for founding the Cubist movement, which uses several points of view and perspectives, creating a geometric-looking result. Cubism was considered a massive break from traditional methods of painting. One of Picasso's most famous cubist pieces is “Guernica,” the artist's representation of the Spanish Civil War.

    Picasso lived in more than one place in France. In 1904, he moved to Paris and settled in the artist quarter of Montmartre. In 1936, he set up his studio at 7 rue des Grands-Augustins in Paris. During World War II, he briefly fled to the south of France but then returned to his Parisian studio in 1940 and remained there until 1955, when he relocated to a villa near Cannes called La Californie. After a brief stay in the French village of Vauvenargues, he finally moved to Mougins, where he lived until he passed away in 1973. On 1stDibs, explore a range of Pablo Picasso art.

    No, Pablo Picasso was not truly an abstract artist, in the opinion of experts. While he did help to shift art away from naturalistic forms toward abstraction with his Cubist pieces, most of his works weren't purely abstract. A good example of this is his well-known Les Demoiselles d’Avignon. In this painting, the female figures are abstracted, but you can still tell that the forms represent the human body. On 1stDibs, find a selection of Pablo Picasso art.

    Picasso's drawing style isn't called by any single name. He created more than 30,000 drawings throughout his life and experimented with different styles. As a result, you might call one of his drawings Neoclassical and another Expressionist, Surrealist or Cubist. Overall, you can refer to his drawings and other artwork as modern art due to the period of time when it was produced. Find a range of Pablo Picasso drawings and other art on 1stDibs.

    Picasso's four art periods are called the Blue period, the Rose period, the African-influenced period and the Cubist period. The Blue period coincided with the turn of the 20th century and included works like The Old Guitarist and The Blue Room. As its name suggests, this period was marked by Picasso's use of shades of blues and greens, which instilled in his paintings a sense of melancholy. Around 1905, Picasso entered his Rose period, adopting a brighter palette of oranges and pinks. Significant works from this time include Autoportrait à la palette and Garçon à la pipe. Many experts point to the 1907 painting Les Demoiselles d’Avignon as the start of Picasso's African-influenced period, during which Picasso employed a style inspired by Iberian and African tribal art. Picasso made many portraits in this style, most often of the women in his life, their expressively colored faces broken into geometric shards of surface planes. By the 1910s, this style had evolved into Cubism, with Picasso fragmenting his subjects into shapes. On 1stDibs, shop a variety of Pablo Picasso art.

    To know if your Picasso is real, search trusted online resources for images of the artist's signature from authentic pieces produced around the same time that you believe your painting, drawing, sculpture, print or other piece was produced. Picasso's signature changed over time, and counterfeiters often fail to match the false signature on their reproductions to the correct signature style for a particular piece's time frame. Because it can be challenging to authenticate art without training and experience, consider having a certified appraiser or experienced dealer assist you.

    How much Picasso's The Dream is worth today is unknown. However, the painting was sold to a private buyer for $155 million in 2013. The painting may be worth even more if sold again today. Also called Le Rêve, the painting is a portrait of Picasso's mistress, Marie-Thérèse Walter. Her face is abstracted and stylized, giving it the character of an African mask. Picasso made many portraits in this style, most often of the women in his life, their expressively colored faces composed of geometric shards of surface planes.

    Yes, some Picasso drawings are valuable. In terms of auction sales, Picasso is the top-grossing artist of all time. However, his paintings often sell for considerably more than his drawings, largely due to the fact that the prolific artist produced tens of thousands of sketches during his life. Generally, the subject matter, date and condition of a Picasso drawing will determine how much it is worth.

    The difference between Matisse and Picasso is that their work is associated with different art movements. Henri Matisse was a leading proponent of Fauvism, a movement whose name is derived from the French word for "wild beast.” Marked by vibrant hues, Fauvist paintings like Matisse’s famous 1906 composition Le Bonheur de vivre have wild, active brushstrokes and a palette unconstrained by nature, resulting in imagery like women with purple skin and trees with orange leaves. Although his work evolved over the course of his career, Pablo Picasso is best known for his association with the Cubist movement, which he is credited with founding with Georges Braque. In Cubist works, reality gets fragmented into flat, geometric forms. Shop a collection of Henri Matisse and Pablo Picasso art on 1stDibs.
