This edition features accompanying words by Rebecca West and the Surrealist writer and poet Michel Leiris.In September 1954, Tériade published a double issue of Verve dedicated to Picasso and illustrating one hundred and eighty drawings by the master, the present work included, which were drawn in Vallauris that winter between 28 November 1953 and 3 February 1954. The rich publication reproduced each work in the exact size and chronological order of the original drawings, so as to preserve the integrity of the suite. Tériade remarked that this collection of drawings was Picasso's "finest, boldest, [and] most poignantly human of all he has produced in the course of his long and brilliant career" (E. Tériade, ed., op. cit., n.p.).At the time Picasso began this series in November 1953, Françoise Gilot had just deserted him, taking their two children with her and leaving him alone as an abandoned man. Deeply hurt, he shut himself away in his vacant villa in Vallauris and frantically produced the 180 drawings which represent ". the diary, not verbal but visual, of a detestable 'season in hell,' a crisis in his personal life which led him to question everything." (ibid.).These works address the central theme of the painter and his model, of a man and a woman, of the subject and the object, handled in a style which is burlesque, comic, grotesque, even caricatured. Some ironically incorporate subjects linked to the world of the circus, the monkey, the acrobat, the clown.The year of this publication, 1954, marked the death of Picasso's artistic rival but great friend Henri Matisse and his passing considerably affected Picasso, who in some way relied on their competition as a catalyst. With this new absence of living rivalry, Picasso was inspired to interact with the artists of the past more than ever, continuously holding conversation with historical masters through his own new, bold interpretations.

Original illustrated boards designed by Picasso depicting the profile of his lover Genevieve Laporte with title lettering in purple; 16 full-page original colour lithographs and 164 black and white reproduction heliogravures; encased in glassine wrapper; near fine.First edition. Double number edition of the Verve art revue showcasing only the works of Pablo Picasso.Verve, the modernist Parisian art magazine at the forefront of the radical creative aesthetic of its time, was first published in 1937 with famous cover artwork by Henri Matisse. Subsequently, it was responsible for showcasing the most distinguished characters of the Parisian art scene of the 20th century, including textual contributions by prominent transgressive authors such as James Joyce. This edition features accompanying words by Rebecca West and prolific Surrealist writer and anthropologist Michel Leiris.Its founder Teriade (pseudonym of the Greek, Stratis Eleftheriades), made the statement, "Verve was born in December 1937. In times of agony, such things happen, when there are big crises, when we are really desperate and we do have nothing to lose, or rather, we are afraid that everything will be lost while waiting for disaster . Then at this precise moment everyone is able to act, even to act with passion".The year of this publication, 1954, marked the death of Picasso's artistic rival but great friend Henri Matisse and his passing considerably affected Picasso, who in some way relied on their competition as a catalyst. With this new absence of living rivalry, Picasso was inspired to interact with the artists of the past more than ever, continuously holding conversation with historical masters through his own new, bold interpretations.
