Details:

Artist: Pablo Picasso (1881-1973)
Title: Picasso Avignon Prolongation
Year: 1973
Object: original exhibition poster
Technique: color lithographic print
Printer: Mourlot, Paris
Lithographer: Henri Deschamps
Paper: Arches, with visible ARCHES watermark
Dimensions: 70.9 x 57.4 cm
Signed: no
Numbered: no
Bibliographic reference: Rodrigo no. 252
Reference Musée national Picasso-Paris: 012/00560
Not framed

The design is based on a work from Picasso's late period with Mougins as its subject, painted in 1972. The poster was produced in 1973 for the exhibition in Avignon

Condition:
The poster is over 50 years old and in good vintage condition, with clear signs of aging and use.

The poster has been stored rolled for a long period and therefore shows roll creases. Along, especially along the left edge, there are multiple creases/folds. Furthermore, there are scattered smaller creases and print marks, mainly in the margins. In the bottom white margin there are some light discolorations/streaks.

The printed design itself generally presents well. There are no large missing parts visible. The poster is not mounted or affixed to linen.

The condition has been extensively documented and photographed up close. Therefore, view all photos carefully; they form an important part of the condition description.

Also the ARCHES watermark, the mention Henri Deschamps/Mourlot, and the reverse side have been photographed separately.

The poster will be carefully rolled and protected packaged for shipment in a sturdy tube.
