Pablo Picasso: 156 Series Original Etching, Femmes Entre elles, dont une avec une Fleur et Tableau Drapé

Picasso's "Femmes Entre Elles.." | Original 156 Series Etching | Plate 67 This exceptional original etching, titled "Femmes Entre elles, dont une avec une Fleur et Tableau Drapé" (Plate 67), stems from Pablo Picasso's storied 156 Series, the definitive final printmaking triumph of his legendary career. Created on March 5, 1971, as inscribed by Picasso directly into the plate, the date appears in reverse within the impression, serving as a raw, tangible timestamp of the artist's late-period creative energy. The artwork showcases a complex, cubist-influenced figurative composition of nude women that beautifully meditates on the timeless themes of voyeurism, classicism, and the female form. While the plate was executed by the aging master in 1971, the actual printing was not finalized until years after his 1973 death, meticulously hand-pulled by the renowned Crommelynck brothers. Having worked side by side with Picasso in Mougins during his final years, the master printers ensured the posthumous edition fully honored his precise artistic standards. Published by the Galerie Louise Leiris in Paris, this rare masterpiece represents an elite collection piece for fine art connoisseurs and museum grade collectors eager to secure a crucial artifact from Picasso's final works.

MAKE AN OFFER Artist Biography: Pablo Picasso × Pablo Picasso (1881-1973) The Master of Metamorphosis and the Avant-Garde Widely regarded as the most influential and well-known artist of the 20th century, Picasso was a relentless innovator and adopter of new art styles. As a co-founder of Cubism, his global fame was born from fractured perspectives and autobiographical themes that reached new audiences with a never-before-seen style that simultaneously amplified his celebrity. His genius was never restrained by any particular movement. His storied career began with at-home instruction, followed by a formal academic education in Spain before moving to the global creative epicenter of Paris, France. Following the introspective melancholy of his retreat to Barcelona at the start of the 20th-century, as expressed in his Blue Period, Picasso returned to Paris to solidify his place at the forefront of the avant-garde for the next 70 years. With critical success came the freedom to experiment across every conceivable medium. He frequently used his formative works on paper as prototypes, or studies, for his masterpieces on canvas, making his graphic works an essential record of his creative process. Picasso's artistic achievements and celebrity status were, and forever will be, unmatched. Picasso and his Graphic Works Picasso famously viewed his printmaking as a "personal diary," a medium through which he explored the continuous metamorphosis of his creative vision. Over his seven-decade career, he produced more than 2,400 works across every conceivable graphic medium, ranging from the intricate detail of original etchings and lithographs to the bold, vibrant textures of his linocuts. He was prolific in producing special edition releases of various themes of literature, mythology, personal experience, and homage to his artistic influences. To achieve this, he often worked directly with legendary printers such as Roger Lacourière, the Atelier Crommelynck, Fernand Mourlot, and Hidalgo Arnéra, redefining what was possible through the plate and stone. Collectors that possess an original lifetime edition from Picasso own an important artifact from the artistic revolution that redefined the 20th century.
