Pablo Picasso Lithograph: 'L’Homme à l’agneau' (Man with a Lamb)
This item is a large-format monochromatic lithograph, an after-work based on Pablo Picasso’s famous 1943 sculpture and subsequent 1967 ink wash drawings. The composition depicts a bearded, muscular man holding a lamb, rendered in a striking gestural style using black ink and grey wash tones. The artwork displays characteristic Mid-Century Modern aesthetics with strong, expressive lines and anatomical stylization typical of Picasso's later period. The piece is housed in a contemporary silver-toned metallic frame with a double mat in cream and off-white. The paper appears to be a heavy woven stock consistent with mid-to-late 20th-century art reproductions or lithographic editions. The condition shows minor signs of aging; there is slight yellowing or toning of the paper stock and minor scuffing on the frame edges. No visible foxing or water damage is present, though some reflection in the glazing indicates it is likely framed under standard glass. The scale is significant, appearing to be a full-length vertical presentation. Such pieces were often part of high-quality limited editions released by major art houses like Mourlot in Paris during the 1960s and 70s.
