Original exhibition poster published by Galerie Berggruen in 1971 to promote an exhibition of 90 original prints by Pablo Picasso. The image is based on Tete de Femme III, representing Dora Maar, one of Picasso’s most important muses. The composition reflects Picasso’s distinctive linear style and expressive treatment of the human figure.

The poster was designed by Henri Deschamps and printed by Mourlot, the renowned Paris lithographic workshop closely associated with many leading twentieth-century artists. It was produced under Picasso’s supervision and references his aquatint composition used for the exhibition.

Pablo Picasso (1881–1973) remains one of the most influential artists of modern art, and his portraits of Dora Maar are among the most recognized works of his later period. Posters issued by Galerie Berggruen are noted for their quality and for documenting important exhibitions of Picasso’s graphic work.
