Signed Pablo Picasso Lithographs

Born in 1881 in Malaga, Spain, Pablo Picasso was the most influential artist in the development of modern painting. His contributions to the world of print, particularily lithography and etching, are enormous. Picasso embellished upon traditional techniques and incorporated multiple foreign mediums into the processes of etching and lithography, creating effects that had not been seen before.

Pictured above is a remarkable work of lithography titled "Le Cavalier(The Rider)". An edition of 300 was published in 1968, of which the work above is numbered 238. It measures 26" x 20" unframed and is signed in pencil in the bottom right hand corner of the lithograph. This piece was published by Henri Deschamps and printed by Mourlot. This print was published in conjunction with a Picsso Exhibition at the Galerie Rosengart in Lucern, Switzerland. It is an avant lettre (before lettering) printed on arches paper. The poster with lettering of this image was never printed. This image realized a price of $18,400 in a major auction house in may of 2004. Given its small edition size "Le Cavalier" is quite rare. Created near the end of his life, this work is a tribute to Picasso's unceasing artistic vitality and uniqueness.  If you are interested in viewing this lithograph and others we are selling , please visit the "Picasso (Signed)" section of our website.

Original Alexander Calder Lithographs

Georgetown Frame Shoppe has a great selection of original Alexander Calder lithographs. While most are aware of Calder's sculptural works, few know that he made a large number of lithographs during the 1960's and 1970's. Some of Calder's lithogaphs were published by Aime Maeght in the art brochure titled "Derriere Le Miroir" dedicated to graphic arts. Shown here is "Toureau avec Spirale Rouge", published in 1975 in an edition of 75. We also have a number of original vintage exhibition posters by Alexander Calder that reveal his talent for two dimensional design.

Mary Cassatt Etchings & Lithographs

Mary Cassatt, an artist who had a lifelong involvement in the graphic arts, produced some of the most subtle and honest images in the medium. Shown here is one of her most famous transfer lithographs, "Sara Wearing Her Bonnet and Coat", circa 1904. Her technique and sensitivity to line reveal her virtuosity as an outstanding graphic artist. In our collection we have a number of her original works for sale such as the lovely color drypoint etchings "Sara Smiling", "Margot Wearing a Bonnet" and "Denise Holding Her Child".

Georgetown Frame Shoppe also specializes in custom archival framing. Our framing studio is located above our gallery, allowing us to professionally handle and frame your artwork using 100% conservation material in a timely manner. With our high quality 100% rag acid free Crescent and Bainbridge mattes, hand wrapped silk and linen mattes, a variety of glass types (Plexiglass, UV, Non-glare, etc.) and a large selection of high quality guilded and antique finished mouldings, we are able to enhance any work of art to it's fullest potential once framed.

 

 

Henri Matisse Signed Lithographs

Henri Matisse, an artist who redefined figurative art, was unknown to many, a prolific lithographer and etcher. Pictured here is the lithograph "Le Vent des Epines", published by Mourlot in 1947 in an edition of 300. This piece is signed in the stone by the artist. Georgetown Frame Shoppe also houses a number of lovely and engaging portraits from Henri Matisse's "Poesies Antillaises" portfolio, published by Ferdnand Mourlot in 1972.

Marc Chagall Signed Lithographs

This color lithograph picturing "Moses and His People" served as the frontispiece to "Le Message Biblique de Marc Chagall", published by Mourlot Freres in 1972. It is edition number 18/50 pulled on Arches wove, signed and numbered by Marc Chagall in pencil.

Our collection of Marc Chagall lithographs and etchings from his various portfolios, series and suites is extensive. "Jerusalem Windows", "The Odyssea", "Daphnis and Chloe", and "The Bible", are only a portion of what we have to offer. Newly acquired are a number of Original Marc Chagall vintage exhibition posters.
