Description
Pablo Picasso Signed Lithograph – "Minotaur's Toast" Limited Edition #25/100. Enter the labyrinth of modern art with a treasured piece that encapsulates the enigma of its creator – a limited edition Pablo Picasso lithograph art print depicting a Minotaur raising a toast to a nude woman. Bearing the legendary artist’s pencil signature, this print numbered 25 out of a select 100, is a reflective tile in the grand mosaic of 20th-century art. This lithograph emerges from the vibrant and transformative energy that defined the early 20th century, a period when Pablo Picasso, one of the most influential artists of all time, reimagined the boundaries of artistic expression. Famous for co-founding the Cubist movement and for the wide range of styles he helped pioneer, Picasso was also renowned for his enthralling depictions of Minotaurs, which became a central motif in his work. The Minotaur, a mythical creature that is half-man and half-bull, often engaged in tempestuous narratives within Picasso's oeuvre, symbolizing primal instincts, complex emotions, and personal turmoil. This particular scene, featuring the Minotaur in a seemingly festive yet profoundly contemplative gesture with a nude companion, resonates with themes of lust, vulnerability, and the duality of human nature. The lithograph itself is masterfully executed, showcasing Picasso’s deft control of line and form, which brings the mythical scene to life with striking depth and movement. The nuances of the Minotaur's expression paired with the grace of the female form reveal Picasso's uncanny ability to convey profound emotion through simplicity of stroke. It is printed on heavy weight paper, which has preserved the piece's integrity over time, and boasts the artist's iconic pencil signature—a seal of its authenticity and a direct link to the master himself. Encapsulating this masterpiece is a museum-quality custom-designed frame that is both an homage to the artist's legacy and a guardian of the work's preservation. Employing UV-protective plexiglass to prevent fading, acid-free materials to prevent degradation, and climate-controlled conditions to maintain its pristine state, this frame ensures that the lithograph can be appreciated for generations to come. Its design is a conscious nod to the era of Picasso, with understated elegance that draws the viewer's focus to the art itself. Attached to this lot is irrefutable documentation affirming its provenance and authenticity. The lithograph is accompanied by a certification of authenticity by recognized forensic experts. Collectability: This lithograph is a treasured acquisition for aficionados of Picasso’s art, collectors of historical prints, and enthusiasts for works with potent symbolic resonance. The fact that it is part of a limited-edition series heightens its exclusivity and, by extension, its desirability. Moreover, as pieces from Picasso's limited lithographic runs seldom present themselves in the art market, this work represents a rare collectible opportunity that could be a cornerstone of any serious collection. This exquisite lot will take center stage in our upcoming auction. Interested parties are encouraged to participate, and the opportunity for advanced private viewings is available upon request.
