AFTER PABLO PICASSO (SPANISH 1881-1973) LINOCUT BACCHANAL WITH YOUNG GOAT AND ONLOOKER
Unframed
First Published 1959
In 1958, Picasso dove headlong into producing linocuts, a type of relief printing that uses a linoleum block. The pliant nature of linoleum offered little resistance to cutting, and it served as a good vehicle for Picasso’s impulse to create compositions in which color and line were nearly inseparable. Over time, pigments can change, lighten or darken, affecting the artist’s original intent for the linocut. This is the case with certain blues. Bacchanal with Goats and Spectator (1959) is a standout in this context on account of the stability and vigor of its palette. The royal blue—seen in the mountain lake and the sky that peeks through the decorative pattern of clouds—remains vibrant. This vitality is important in an animated composition in which color forms communicate a sense of spatial depth.

This is from the unsigned edition published in 1962 by Éditions Cercle d’Art, Paris and Harry Abrams,
