Conveying the complexity of a family dynamic through simplicity of line and form, this exquisite print exemplifies Picasso's skill at capturing human expression. Picasso chooses to devote equal amounts of emotion and energy to each saltimbanque, nearly equating this piece to four works of portraiture within an all-encompassing familial scene. |

| Descripción Histórica: | |
| This simple and elegant rendition of an otherwise typical family portrait is
anything but. A family of performers, actors, and entertainers are portrayed
in this work, yet Picasso chooses to devote an equal amount of emotion and energy
with each character, making this piece more equivalent to 4 works of portraiture.
They are the perfect, nuclear family with dog in tow, however they also seem
to be bogged down within their own, unique and individual worlds. This is a
highly expressive, very moving work which any wife, husband, son or daughter
could relate.
Created in c. 1950 Famille de Saltimbanques is hand-signed by Pablo Picasso
(Malaga, 1881 - Mougins, 1973) in the lower right margin in pencil. Printed
on Chine collé paper with deckle edges, the work features a strong and
defined plate mark with wide margins all around. Published by Crommelynck, Paris,
the sheet also features their signature blindstamp. 1. A Certificate of Authenticity accompanies this work.

Pablo Picasso biografía
Pablo Picasso (1881 - 1973)
"Yet Cubism and Modern art weren't either scientific or intellectual; they were visual and came from the eye and mind of one of the greatest geniuses in art history. Pablo Picasso, born in Spain, was a child prodigy who was recognized as such by his art-teacher father, who ably led him along. The small Museo de Picasso in Barcelona is devoted primarily to his early works, which include strikingly realistic renderings of casts of ancient sculpture.
"He was a rebel from the start and, as a teenager, began to frequent the Barcelona cafes where intellectuals gathered. He soon went to Paris, the capital of art, and soaked up the works of Manet, Gustave Courbet, and Toulouse-Lautrec, whose sketchy style impressed him greatly. Then it was back to Spain, a return to France, and again back to Spain - all in the years 1899 to 1904.
"Before he struck upon Cubism, Picasso went through a prodigious number of styles - realism, caricature, the Blue Period, and the Rose Period. The Blue Period dates from 1901 to 1904 and is characterized by a predominantly blue palette and subjects focusing on outcasts, beggars, and prostitutes. This was when he also produced his first sculptures. The most poignant work of the style is in Cleveland's Museum of Art, La Vie (1903), which was created in memory of a great childhood friend, the Spanish poet Casagemas, who had committed suicide. The painting started as a self-portrait, but Picasso's features became those of his lost friend. The composition is stilted, the space compressed, the gestures stiff, and the tones predominantly blue. Another outstanding Blue Period work, of 1903, is in the Metropolitan, The Blind Man's Meal. Yet another example, perhaps the most lyrical and mysterious ever, is in the Toledo Museum of Art, the haunting Woman with a Crow (1903).
"The Rose Period began around 1904 when Picasso's palette brightened, the paintings dominated by pinks and beiges, light blues, and roses. His subjects are saltimbanques (circus people), harlequins, and clowns, all of whom seem to be mute and strangely inactive. One of the premier works of this period is in Washington, D.C., the National Gallery's large and extremely beautiful Family of Saltimbanques dating to 1905, which portrays a group of circus workers who appear alienated and incapable of communicating with each other, set in a one-dimensional space.
"In 1905, Picasso went briefly to Holland, and on his return to Paris, his works took on a classical aura with large male and fernale figures seen frontally or in distinct profile, almost like early Greek art. One of the best of these of 1906 is in the Albright-Knox Gallery in Buffalo, NY, La Toilette. Several pieces in this new style were purchased by Gertrude (the art patron and writer) and her brother, Leo Stein.
Picasso enjoyed creating his art on many media. From paintings to etchings to ceramics, all of his works are a testament to his skills. There are even Picasso prints that are worth more than unique original works.
