PABLO PICASSO - Lot 220
PABLO PICASSO Contribution to the Ballets Russes: costume for the Chinese Magician in the ballet "Parade" (1917) and illustration + drawings (1923, reprinted in 1924). Offprints detached from period programs, 1917 and 1924 (on the occasion of the Great Art Season of the VIIIth Olympiad: a stencil on the front cover of a double-page spread (original cord) and an illustration stapled to a double-page spread of lithographic drawings (five). 31.2 x 24.2 cm & 27n x 21.5 cm. The third cover of the double-page spread is torn, but this does not affect the stencil; the spine of the illustration is discolored and pitted. Note: As a key figure in 20th-century art, this lot highlights the role of prints in the circulation and reception of artworks. A superb piece to enrich a collection dedicated to 20th-century arts and documents.
