Description

Vintage circa 1954 glossy 5.75 x 3.75 deckle-edge photo of Pablo Picasso seated and talking with Countess Paule de Lazerme (of whom Picasso made several portraits), on the terrace of Le Grande Cafe in Ceret, France, with others pictured including Pierre Brune, and Maya and Roland Penrose, signed neatly on the reverse in black ink, “Picasso.” In fine condition.

Pablo Picasso often visited and painted in Ceret and was instrumental in founding the Musée d'Art Moderne de Ceret, which was created by Pierre Brune and Frank Burty Haviland in 1950, with the personal support of Picasso and Henri Matisse. The Musée d’art moderne houses a permanent collection of both internationally famous and local artists, including 78 pieces by Pablo Picasso – 57 of which were gifts from the artist himself.
