Pablo Picasso Cubist Portrait Lithograph

Updated August 12, 2026

Title: Cubist Portrait Technique: Lithograph on paper Measures: 27 x 19 inches (68.6 x 48.3 cm) Year: Circa mid-20th century Condition: Good condition. Strong coloration and graphic definition throughout with minor wear consistent with age and handling. Paper appears well preserved and is presented under glass in a wood-style frame. Provenance: Private collection, Seville, Spain. Visual Description: This striking composition presents a highly stylized female portrait constructed through overlapping facial profiles, fragmented geometric forms, and dramatic contrasts of blue, yellow, gray, orange, and black. Expressive eyes and shifting perspectives create a dynamic interplay between abstraction and recognizable portraiture, while the bold surrounding border gives the image a strong graphic presence. The work bears visible markings including an edition notation appearing as “13/50” and a Picasso-style signature in the lower margin. This hand-created artwork offers collectors an opportunity to enjoy the visual language, technique, composition, and artistic characteristics associated with the named artist at a substantially more accessible price point than authenticated works by that artist, which may command significantly higher prices in the established fine-art market. Offered “in the style of” the named artist, the work should be appreciated and valued on its own merits as a hand-created piece inspired by an important artistic tradition. It provides an accessible way to acquire a visually compelling artwork reflecting the aesthetic qualities associated with a celebrated artist without the price expectations attached to an authenticated work.This artwork is uncatalogued and unauthenticated and has not been authenticated or approved by the named artist, their estate, foundation, catalogue raisonné committee, or other recognized authority.
