Description

Signed postcard of Pablo Picasso's revolutionary Cubist masterpiece 'Les Demoiselles d'Avignon'

Fantastic color 4 x 5.5 postcard of Pablo Picasso's revolutionary 1907 masterpiece 'Les Demoiselles d'Avignon,' signed in the lower border in fountain pen, "Picasso, le IX.II.60." The address side has been embellished by a spurious Cubist sketch, colorfully accomplished in an unknown hand. In fine condition, with minor evidence of mounting along the edges.

Pablo Picasso's Les Demoiselles d'Avignon (1907) is a groundbreaking work that shattered traditional notions of perspective and form, marking the advent of Cubism. Featuring five angular, distorted female figures inspired by African and Oceanic art, the painting challenged aesthetic norms and reflected Picasso's exploration of modernism. Its raw energy and radical style redefined artistic conventions, influencing countless artists and movements in the 20th century.
