Pablo Picasso Etching from the 347 Series, Bacchanal Scene, Signed
Original etching by Pablo Picasso from his renowned 347 Series, a collection of prints created in 1968 that showcases his unrestrained imagination and mastery of line. This work presents a bacchanalian scene filled with surreal and exaggerated figures, a testament to Picasso's fascination with classical themes, eroticism, and the grotesque. Executed with expressive line work, the composition blends mythological elements with playful yet unsettling distortions, characteristic of the artist's late period. The print is signed in pencil by Picasso in the lower right and numbered 11/50 in the lower left. The plate bears the reference number 25.3.68 in reverse on the upper left, a cataloging notation linked to Picasso's extensive printmaking oeuvre. Framed and matted, this etching exemplifies Picasso's innovative approach to printmaking and his continued engagement with themes of human desire, fantasy, and artistic exploration.
