PABLO PICASSO (after)
Pierrot et Arlequin.

Color pochoir, circa 1920. 213x265 mm; 8 3/8x10 1/2 inches, wide margins. Signed and numbered 75/100 in pencil, lower left. Ex-collection Marina Picasso, with the "Marina Picasso Collection" oval ink stamp and inventory number in pencil, verso. Published by Paul Rosenberg, Paris. From Dix Pochoirs. A very good impression of this scarce, early print, with strong colors.

Paul Rosenberg became Picasso's dealer in 1918 and respresented the artist until 1940. In the early 1920s he published a set of 10 pochoirs, after a series of Cubist gouaches depicting Commedia dell'Arte motifs that Picasso had made in 1920.
