Desirable pairing of circa 1962 postcards: a 4 x 6 photo of one of Picasso's artworks depicting the face of a bull, signed in the upper border in blue ballpoint, "Picasso"; and a 4 x 6 postcard depicting a plate painted by Picasso with a bullfighting theme, also signed in the upper border in ballpoint, "Picasso." The latter bears a lengthy note by the Miette Brune, the wife of Ceret Museum founder and curator Pierre Brune, mentioning Lipchitz and Parisian Galleries. In overall fine condition. Accompanied by frames for potential display. Consignor notes that these originate from the collection of Pierre Brune, founder of the Musee d'Art Moderne de Ceret. Picasso lived in Ceret during the early 20th century, and often drew inspiration from the commune's bullfighting culture. Pre-certified PSA/DNA.
