GEORGES BRAQUE
Athênê.

Color lithograph, 1932. 370x300 mm; 14 5/8x11 7/8 inches, full margins. Signed and numbered 20/75 in pencil, lower right. Printed by Berdon, Paris. Published by the artist, Paris. A very good impression of this scarce, early lithograph.

Considered by Braque (1882-1963) as one of his most important lithographs. According to Vallier, Braque assisted Berdon with the printing process and changed the inking of the stone several times, which explains the color variations in different impressions of this print within the edition.
