Pablo Picasso, Carnet Catalan, Limited Edition Facsimile Sketchbook
Pablo Picasso; Douglas Cooper. CARNET CATALAN. Paris: Berggruen & Cie, 1958. (2) volumes, in original tan paper fitted slipcase with printed paper label. The first volume offers a preface and notes by Douglas Cooper bound in light brown wraps with black lettering, oblong 12mo; 34, [6] pp. The second volume is a small facsimile of Picasso's 1906 "Catalan Sketchbook" bound in faux leather, ff. [36]. Limited edition; no. 21 of 500 for-sale copies (550 total).
This is a facsimile of the sketchbook Picasso filled with annotations and figural drawings, many of Fernande Olivier, while staying in the village of Gósol in Catalonia during the summer of 1906. Art historians agree that this was an important transitional time in his career and that it had an enormous impact on his work as a result of being exposed to artistic influences outside of Paris.
Condition: Sketchbook with minor creasing and small tear to faux leather at fold, and a small tear to the interior; booklet wraps with faint discoloration and slight rubbing to corners, and interior with light creasing and tiny spot to title page leaf; slipcase with mild scuffing and grime, and minor dent to label. A very good plus example of this interesting publication.
