about Femme au corset tesant un livre

Reading a book, the woman wearing a corset in this Pablo Picasso print is rendered in an angular, fragmented fashion emblematic of the artist's Cubist style.

While the artist has rendered her hair in a more naturalistic fashion, the rest of her figure is comprised of rectangular shapes that are outlined in thick black lines. Estate of Picasso, (Marina Picasso) pencil signature and embossed blindstamp lower right. Ink stamp verso 'Approved by the heirs of Pablo Picasso'. Accompanied by a certificate of authenticity.
