Estimate

Price realised:
US$4,062
Beschreibung:

Original gelatin silver print. 34x26 cm (13½x10¼"). Original print of Pablo Picasso and Jean Cocteau with Cocteau playing an African xylophone type instrument, and Picasso joyfully looking on. "Photo by David D. Duncan" stamp on verso, along with various notes in pencil, apparently for the use of the photograph in a book or other publication. Provenance: Kenneth James Stuart illustrator and art director for The Saturday Evening Post, with family notes on an accompanying board that had been formerly framed with the print: "...property of Ken Stuart Jr., gift from dad...Duncan told me he can't get the paper anymore on which this print was made..." This print of the photo was likely part of a 1958 exhibition of Duncan's Picasso photographs at the Philadelphia Museum of Art.
