Description

Pablo Picasso’s Deux nus assis (1930) is a refined etching that exemplifies the artist’s mastery of line and form during one of the most inventive periods of his graphic production. Printed in the final state (Baer IIIb) on Rives BFK paper, the composition depicts two seated nude figures rendered with an elegant, sculptural simplicity.

Picasso’s use of etching allows for delicate tonal variations and crisp contours, giving the work both immediacy and depth. The restrained yet expressive line reflects the classical influences that permeated Picasso’s work during the late 1920s and early 1930s, when he often revisited mythological and figurative themes with a modern sensibility.

This example is signed and numbered /100, from the edition published in 1933 by Éditions Le Nouvel Essor. As part of the definitive printing of the plate’s final state, it represents the artist’s completed vision and stands as an important work within Picasso’s extensive printmaking practice.
