Characterized by bold brushwork, fragmented features, and a vibrant palette, the image exemplifies the expressive freedom and painterly experimentation that defined the artist's work during the 1960s. Referenced: Rodrigo, Vol. I, #167, p. 362. Issued during Picasso's lifetime, the poster was printed by the celebrated Mourlot atelier in Paris, whose collaborations with the artist helped establish the modern art poster as an important collectible medium. Combining the visual force of Picasso's late style with the historical significance of a major French exhibition, the poster remains a desirable example of twentieth-century exhibition design and art publishing. The Château de Culan exhibition is documented in the Picasso literature and represents an important period of institutional recognition for the artist's late work. Printed by Mourlot, Paris, for the Château de Culan exhibition. Show more
