Offset Lithograph after Pablo Picasso from "Toros y Toreros" Folio

Item Details

An offset lithograph reproduction on fine printmaking paper of an original crayon sketch by very well-listed Spanish Cubist Pablo Picasso (1881 – 1973). The drawing was originally created in 1957, and was first reproduced in Paris in 1961 by Mourlot Freres as a part of the folio Toros y Toreros, which included illustrations by Picasso accompanying text by famed bullfighter Luis Miguel Dominguin and art critic Georges Boudaille. This copy of the print is from a later 1993 third edition of the folio, published by Cercle d’Art in a limited edition of 150. The print depicts a woman in fine clothing and a tall hat riding a horse across a flat landscape. The date “10.3.59” and Roman numeral “XI” are printed in-plate to the upper right. A certificate of authenticity from The Great Dane Collection is attached, though it contains some misinformation. Presented without matting or framing.
