From the edition of 68, the art is signed 'Picasso' lower right. The artwork is framed in a custom Spanish-style closed-corner black and gold frame and has a framed size of 18 x 20\". The artwork ships framed and is accompanied by a certificate of authenticity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn printmaking, the 347 Series was the undertaking which defined late Picasso. This prodigious outpouring of work, dating from March 16th–October 5th, 1968, deals with all of his old themes and fantasies, adding an obsession newly central in the late sixties, the artist as voyeur. It is in this role, rather than that of a protagonist, that the artist figures in these fantastic narration's. The series has been described as taking the form of a stream-of-consciousness epic. There is a suggestion of narratives throughout the series; however, there is never a point where a story comes to completion or where suggested desire is realized. There are faces we know, tales we have seen, and the work of great masters is recognizably revisited, but all without a clear endpoint. These prints become instead a stroll through the mind and memories at the end of Picasso’s much-lived life. A note about the technical production of these plates - to work with full freedom and concentration, Picasso had his printers, the brothers Crommelynck, bring the etching plates and hand press to his farmhouse near Cannes.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Pablo Picasso","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67867642265917,"sku":"AQPIC3189SB","price":19850.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1551\/3581\/files\/AQPIC3189SB__P-Image_trois_mousquetaires_saluant_une_femme_au_lit_b1669_aqpic3189sb_eaun01_pimage_35b29bb2-a070-481d-9e52-6782e9d22465.jpg?v=1793391749","url":"https:\/\/martinlawrence.com\/products\/three-musketeers-greeting-a-woman-in-bed-347-series-b-1669-1968","provider":"Martin Lawrence Galleries","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
