Lot 149 | PICASSO, Pablo (1881-1973)
PICASSO, Pablo (1881-1973). Recordant el Doctor Reventós (Homenatge dels seus amics). Barcelone : Editorial Gustavo Gili, 1969. Superbe gravure originale signée de Picasso. L'ouvrage est un hommage posthume rendu au médecin Cinto Reventós (1883-1968), par son fils et nombre de ses collègues. Très attristé par la mort de celui qui fut l'un de ses amis d'enfance, Picasso décide de contribuer à l'oraison en offrant un cuivre, gravé près d'une vingtaine d'années auparavant. Il s'agit d'un portrait de Geneviève Laporte, qu'il avait rencontrée en 1944. C'est en 1951 que leur relation prit un tournant sentimental, et que Picasso réalisa ce superbe nu. Goeppert-Cramer, Picasso, n°147 ; G. Bloch, "Picasso. Volume II: Catalogue of the Printed Graphic Work, 1966-1969", Berna, Éditions Kornfeld et Klipstein, 1971, p. 336, nº cat. 1837 ; J.
