Remembering Pablo Picasso 🕊

Pablo Picasso, born Pablo Ruiz Picasso, October 25, 1881 – April 8, 1973, was a Spanish painter, sculptor, printmaker, ceramicist, and stage designer who spent most of his life in France. He is widely regarded as one of the most influential artists of the 20th century and a co-founder of the Cubist movement.

Born in Málaga, Spain, Picasso showed artistic talent at a young age and received formal training in art. Over his long career, he explored a wide range of styles and techniques, helping to revolutionize modern art. His notable works include Les Demoiselles d’Avignon (1907) and Guernica (1937), the latter reflecting the horrors of war during the Spanish Civil War.

Picasso’s career spanned more than seven decades, during which he produced thousands of artworks across multiple mediums. His innovations, particularly in Cubism and collage, had a lasting impact on the development of modern and contemporary art.

Pablo Picasso died on April 8, 1973, in Mougins, France, at the age of 91. The cause of death was pulmonary edema and heart failure.

Pablo Picasso (1881-1973)
Untitled
1964
Hand mounted color print
To Read📖(*)“This is an original 1964 hand-mounted color print by Pablo Picasso. This original print is from the first edition of the first portfolio of the three-volume series "Secrets d'alcove d'un atelier" which was an important group of Picasso monographs by Helene Parmelin.

Parmelin was allowed "intimate" access to Picasso's studio when he was an artist in his mid-80's, examining the works of art of that Picasso refused to sell because they held particular meaning to him. This is why most of the works offered from this collection are not named. It is a true exploration of achievement in the latter part of his career.

This item is labeled as a work completed on December 11, 1961, originally on canvas at a size of approximately 36x28 and is a portrait illustration. The item is still mounted to the board from the portfolio. There is nothing printed on the verso of the tipped color print. The color print was printed in France in 1964 and any text below it on the board was printed in the Holland. It was hand-mounted in West Germany.”
