Picasso: the Lost Sketchbook

The Picasso sketchbook featured here dates back to March 1923 and has never been seen before. It was part of a cache of works stolen over decades by Picasso´s electrician and only discovered when he and his wife tried to sell some pieces in 2020. A facsimilie of the sketchbook itself, bound in real linen cloth that has been specifically aged to match the original, is packaged in a clamshell box with an illustrated book that tells the story of the theft and the discovery and examines the sketches in detail relating them to several examples of Picasso´s finished work.
