This original lithograph was created by Picasso with Mourlot in 1953. ‘The design is highly complex and incudes techniques found in various Picasso periods. The face is divided into three distinct planes. The eye, all in black, is set in the centre of the flat blue area and is matched in design by the black line dividing the face from the rest of the blue area. The eye on the right is so constructed as to carry the white, and if you place your hand to the left of the nose, just covering the left eye, you will notice the profile effect that the face takes on. Remove your hand and the full face emerges again. Thus, you have the combination of full face and profile that dominated Picasso’s work in the forties.’ [JKF The Posters of Picasso p.29].
