Pablo Picasso, Spanish (1881 - 1973)
In a time span of over 75 years, Picasso amazed the world with his versatility and genius. His art captured a unique style that was rich in personal expression and diversity. Picasso bestowed upon the world a legacy of art that was to be admired for generations.
The works of art in our collection were selected from the personal collection inherited by Marina Picasso, Pablo Picasso's granddaughter.
After Pablo Picasso's death in 1973, his granddaughter Marina authorized the printing of these original lithographs, which have come to be known as the Picasso Estate Collection. The lithographs were meticulously created after the original works (Oil Paintings, Watercolors, Pastels, Charcoal Drawings, etc.) by Master Chromist Marcel Salinas, who worked closely with Picasso in his lifetime. They are printed in an edition of 500 on first-quality Arches paper. To ensure authenticity, each print is signed and numbered in pencil by Marina Picasso and embossed with the estate and chromist's seals, along with the legend on the reverse "Approved by the heirs of Pablo Picasso". These rare and highly desirable prints have sold in galleries across the United States and Europe. To ensure authenticity, each of the 500 limited edition Lithographs is numbered and signed by Marina Picasso, and is stamped with the embossed seal of the estate and the chromes.
