About the Item

This exquisite lithograph after Pablo Picasso (1881–1973), titled Vase de fleurs (Vase of Flowers), from the album Une visite a Vallauris (A Visit to Vallauris), originates from the 1950 edition published by Editions du Musee de Vallauris, Paris, and printed by Mourlot Freres, Paris, May 5, 1950. Vase de fleurs (Vase of Flowers) exemplifies Picassos lyrical exploration of form and color during his Vallauris period, where the artist lived and worked from 1948 to 1955. In this period, Picasso was deeply immersed in the Mediterranean environment, embracing its light, simplicity, and natural rhythm. The image of a vase of flowers—rendered with bold, fluid linework—reflects his renewed joy in the harmony of art and everyday life, a theme that defined his work in ceramics, sculpture, and printmaking during these years. Executed as a lithograph on velin de d'Arches paper, this work measures 8.27 x 5.12 inches. Signed in the plate and unnumbered as issued. The edition exemplifies the superb craftsmanship of Mourlot Freres, Paris, under the direction of Editions du Musee de Vallauris, Paris.

About the Publication: Une visite a Vallauris (A Visit to Vallauris), published by Editions du Musee de Vallauris in 1950, stands as an artistic reflection of Pablo Picasso’s profound connection to the southern French town that became his creative haven in the postwar years. Printed by the master lithographers at Mourlot Freres in Paris, the album celebrates the renaissance of the Vallauris pottery tradition and the artist’s role in revitalizing it. The publication coincided with the exhibition L’Homme au mouton de Picasso (The Man with the Sheep by Picasso), held in Vallauris from July to September 1950, during which Picasso’s monumental sculpture was unveiled in the village square. The lithographs included in the album capture the warmth and simplicity of Mediterranean life—sunlight, earth, and craftsmanship—rendered through Picasso’s spontaneous and direct line. The volume was produced in a limited edition with various proofs and states, some used for promotional and exhibition purposes, attesting to the close collaboration between Picasso, Mourlot Freres, and the Vallauris Museum. Une visite a Vallauris remains a significant testament to Picasso’s union of fine art and everyday craft, marking one of the most joyful and humanistic periods of his life and career. About the Artist: Pablo Picasso (1881–1973) was a Spanish painter, sculptor, printmaker, and ceramicist whose extraordinary vision revolutionized modern art and defined the visual language of the 20th century. A child prodigy from Malaga, Spain, Picassos career spanned more than seven decades and encompassed an astonishing range of styles and innovations—from the melancholic Blue and romantic Rose periods to his pioneering invention of Cubism with Georges Braque, which shattered conventional notions of perspective and form. Influenced by the bold expressiveness of El Greco, the structure of Cezanne, and the vitality of African and Iberian sculpture, Picasso became a central figure of the Paris avant-garde, working in creative dialogue with contemporaries such as Henri Matisse, Alexander Calder, Alberto Giacometti, Salvador Dali, Joan Miro, Wassily Kandinsky, Marcel Duchamp, and Man Ray. His insatiable experimentation extended across painting, drawing, printmaking, ceramics, and sculpture, forever expanding the boundaries of artistic expression. A master of reinvention, Picasso profoundly shaped generations of artists who followed—from Andy Warhol, Roy Lichtenstein, David Hockney, and Jean-Michel Basquiat to Jeff Koons and Banksy—cementing his status as a timeless cultural icon whose works remain among the most sought after worldwide. His landmark painting Les Femmes d'Alger (Version O) achieved a record-breaking sale of 179,365,000 USD at Christies, New York, on May 11, 2015, affirming Picassos enduring legacy as one of the most influential and valuable artists in history.
