Pablo Picasso Drawing 'Pours Mes Chers Fiancés, ' 1956
Located in Bishop's Stortford, Hertfordshire
A unique vintage Pablo Picasso (Spanish, 1881-1973) framed, signed and inscribed title page of L'Oeuvre Gravé de Picasso dedicated and presented to the engaged couple Sylvette David and Tobias Jellinek, who married later in 1956 with original pastel sketches of the couple below a signed dedication reading 'Pour mes chers fiances' dated to the upper left corner 20.4.56. Provenance: Given by Pablo Picasso to Sylvette David and Tobias Jellinek on their engagement and who later married; thence sold to Eila Grahame. Other notes: "In 1956 the art periodical, Verve, had an image of Sylvette on the cover and Sylvette and I were given a copy. We went to see Picasso that day and took the book with us, and asked Picasso if he would sign it for us. He went and found some colored crayons and wrote the dedication, adding the little sketch of us both. The likeness of Sylvette shows how comfortable he was with producing her image, which he had previously worked with for several months. His drawing of me with my new beard is less of a likeness!" Tobias Jellinek, April 2017. Pablo Picasso had been working on a portrait of Sylvette David, aged 19, as the girl with the ponytail before doing the present cartoon sketch. "Sylvette" is the title of one of Picasso's numerous paintings featuring a young woman with a ponytail. The model for the painting, Lydia Sylvette David, also known later by her married name Lydia Corbett...

Antique, New and Vintage Decorative Art

Antique, new and vintage decorative art is crucial to personalizing your interior.

Bringing art into your home will help you create a warm and welcoming atmosphere, whether you are expecting to regularly host guests for cocktails in your living room or you are inclined to soak up some “me time” on weekends by curling up with a book in your library. After all, a room isn’t quite complete until you hang some art on the walls.

Choosing a piece of art for your interior is a matter of finding something that resonates with you. You should also consider what will work with your current decor. Keep in mind that a wide range of objects counts as decorative art — antique and vintage prints, paintings, wall-mounted sculptures and more. There is so much to choose from! And art can feel as deeply personal with the vintage posters that promoted your favorite classic films as it can with framed photographs of your loved ones.

Decorative art can set the mood for a room and will typically make for great conversation. When you find wall decor and decorations that speak to you, why not introduce them into your space? It will give you and your guests the opportunity to meaningfully engage with the art every time you see it. You can play with different styles, eras and colors. Mix and match pieces to integrate a refreshing pop of color or create a theme by dedicating a room to a color palette or certain time period. A great way to tie your layout together is to choose wall art that complements your decor and color scheme.

Folk art is an interesting category for its wide range of works across various media and the array of textures it can offer. Paper art is another versatile option because it will be easy to find a home for portraits, collages, drawings and other works in your space. With decorative paper art, you can also get creative with how you arrange your wall art. There are plenty of options that include hanging the works salon-style.

On 1stDibs, find a constantly growing collection of antique and vintage decorative art today.
