About the Item
Dora Maar — Guernica Photogravure, 1937
From the First Issue of Verve, Framed & Free Worldwide Shipping
An iconic visual artifact of 20th-century art history: this photogravure captures Pablo Picasso’s “Guernica” as photographed by Dora Maar in 1937. Commissioned for the Pavilion of the Spanish Republic at the Paris Exposition, Guernica remains Picasso’s most powerful anti-war statement. Dora Maar’s documentation—both of the process and the finished work—cemented her legacy as one of the era’s most influential photographers.
This print was published in the luxury art journal “Verve”, founded by Tériade, and printed by Draeger Frères in the inaugural 1937 issue. It remains one of the earliest published images of Guernica outside of exhibition settings.

(after) Pablo Picasso
Pablo Picasso (1881 – 1973) was a Spanish painter, sculptor, printmaker, ceramicist, stage designer, poet and playwright who is regarded as one of the most influential artists of the 20th century. He is known for co-founding the Cubist movement, the invention of constructed sculpture, the co-invention of collage, and for the wide variety of styles that he helped develop and explore. Exceptionally prolific throughout the course of his long life, Picasso achieved universal renown and immense fortune for his revolutionary artistic accomplishments, and became one of the best-known figures in 20th-century art. The total number of artworks he produced has been estimated at around 50,000.
Dora Maar
Henriette Theodora Markovitch, known as Dora Maart, was a French photographer and painter. She was also known as model of several paintings by Picasso.
