picasso - mes dessins d'antibes

The suite "Mes Dessins d'Antibes" consists of sixteen lithographs on velin d'Arches pur Chiffon (by Daniel Jacomet) representing the ancient Greece of Antibes, known as Antipolis. Published in Paris during 1958, this grand work reproduces the magnificent original Picasso drawings of 1946.

Here Picasso utilised possibly for the first time the lithographic technique, reproduced here almost in monochrome to recreate the austere mythological interaction of the Centaur, the Nymph and the Faun, a constant theme in Picasso's post-war period. The lithographs are of a good large size and are all in fine condition. Some of these will be exhibited at our Picasso exhibition later in the year.
