Description
Pablo Picasso
Two Satyrs and Goat
linocut
title printed on original exhibition label affixed verso
260 x 320mm
Note
Between the years 1958 and 1961 Picasso made several linocuts, a creative process he found greatly stimulating. During this time he invented the ‘reduction’ method, progressively cutting the same lino block for each new colour, making it impossible to take any further prints from the original block. This image was likely printed in 1962.
