Description: Now is your chance to own an authentic, original limited edition lithograph by Pablo Picasso. It was created on May 3,1949, printed in Paris, France on Vélin Renage paper. The image depicted is a mask. It was created by Picasso on Zinc. The nimbus rays around the head were made using sandpaper. The lithograph was designed to be part of a limited edition catalog of Picasso's lithography work from 1919 to 1947. The catalog's front cover itself was an original lithograph, this is what I am offering for auction. It was published by Fernand Mourlot, editor Andre Sauret. The edition size was 2,500. You will see in the reference photos that the lithograph created by Picasso was for the front and back covers as well as the spine of the edition. What I offer here is the front cover lithograph. Every year these Picasso Lithographs become more difficult to acquire, especially this particular image. A quick internet search will verify the scarcity of this piece. I have large collection of Picasso books and catalogs. I am including multiple photos of these reference materials so you can be well informed regarding what you are bidding on.
