[Visual Arts] Picasso, Pablo. (1881–1973). Tête de femme . Zervos vol. 19, plate 386. Dec. 1, l960, [actually done Nov. 12, 1960]. Signed within the print.
Margaret Silberman's book "Pour Margaret from Picasso with love" recently explained its origin. Margaret was friends with Picasso and Jacqueline and after doing a favor for him, Picasso offered her a choice of 12 double heads he had done in india ink washes. These other eleven "Tetes" can be found on the adjacent pages in Zervos.
The original was given to her on December 1st, 1960 and signed on that date, though the piece had actually been created on November 12th. Silberman grew to become a close friend of the family & became one of Picasso's dealers in 1961 under the company name Picasso Arts, Inc.
This image, as a signature of their friendship, was used as the company's logo and featured on their business cards. A small run of high quality art prints were produced, omitting the dedication & leaving the date & signature intact. These were sold in Silberman's shops/galleries and, presumably, exhibitions of Picasso's work, in the early 1960s.
Measures 21" x 30" / 53.34cm x 76.2cm
