Description
Pablo Picasso (1881-1973) after Le Déjeuner sur l'herbe, Galerie Louise Leiris, 1962 - Imprimerie Mourlot, Paris. Colour lithograph, 68 x 51 cm. Condition A, perfect state of conservation. Not canvas-backed. This exceptional poster was designed for the historic exhibition at the Galerie Louise Leiris, presenting Picasso's famous series of variations on Édouard Manet's masterpiece. Drawn on stone by Henri Deschamps under the direct supervision of the master, this composition illustrates Picasso's brilliant appropriation and deconstruction of the classics. The edition, limited to 2,500 copies by the Mourlot studios, demonstrates a rare technical rigour, restoring the full vigour of the contrasts and the freedom of the line. A masterpiece of Picasso's iconography in the 1960s, it symbolises the artist's ongoing dialogue with art history, while affirming his radical modernity.
