Pablo Picasso 1881-1973
Pablo Picasso was born in Spain in 1881 and was to become the most famous, versatile, prolific and influential artist of the 20th Century. The son of a painting and drawing master, he was remarkably precocious, mastering academic draughtsmanship when still a child. By the 1920s Picasso had established himself as a world famous painter and his reputation and status continued to grow.

It is our good fortune that Picasso had such a great love of printmaking. By the time he died in 1973 he had produced a substantial body of original etchings, lithographs and linocuts, which rank with the greatest prints of the 20th Century. While the ownership of an original painting is, for the majority of us, out of the question, his original prints made in small editions remain relatively accessible.
Etching, Aquatint, 1968
Suite: La Célestine
Unsigned
Edition of 400
Paper size: 12.4 × 8.9cm
£2000 Framed
The etchings made for La Célestine are part of the famous '347' series.Between March 16 and October 5, 1968, Picasso worked on the plates almost daily, using various techniques (sometimes on the same plate); he was impatient to see the impression as soon as it was pulled by Aldo and Piero Crommelynck, who had installed their atelier at Mougins. This must rank as one of Picasso's most important and sought-after late suites.
