about Jeux de Pages

Donned in extensive armor covering both his own body and the body of his horse, the knight in this Pablo Picasso print is rendered in a complex Cubist style.

While the figures of the page boy and servant on the right are depicted in an identifiable, somwhat naturalistic manner, the knight himself is barely identifiable as a human being due to the artist's inclusion of contraptions and metalwork covering and manipulating his form. Estate of Picasso, (Marina Picasso) pencil signature and embossed blindstamp lower right. Ink stamp verso 'Approved by the heirs of Pablo Picasso'.
