Additional Details: A striking mid-century reproduction of Picasso’s celebrated Vallauris imagery, this piece captures the artist’s bold graphic language and symbolic duality. The composition features a split face—half rendered in warm yellow tones with expressive, mask-like features, and half in cool blue with linear, almost schematic forms—set against a vivid red ground. The hand-drawn lettering “Vallauris 1956” anchors the work in Picasso’s prolific ceramics period in the South of France. Printed by the renowned Atelier Mourlot—Picasso’s longtime lithography collaborator—this impression was produced for the 1959 reference volume Art in Posters by Sauret, making it an authentic period reproduction closely tied to the artist’s original printmaking practice. Elegantly framed, the piece presents beautifully and is ready to hang, offering a strong decorative presence while retaining historical and artistic significance.
