Picasso was exceptionally prolific throughout his long lifetime. The total number of artworks he produced has been estimated at 50,000, comprising 1,885 paintings; 1,228 sculptures; 2,880 ceramics, roughly 12,000 drawings, many thousands of prints, and numerous tapestries and rugs. Picasso\u2019s final works were a mixture of styles, his means of expression in constant flux until the end of his life. From 1968 through 1971 he produced a torrent of paintings and hundreds of copperplate etchings. Only later, after Picasso\u2019s death, when the rest of the art world had moved on from abstract expressionism, did the critical community come to see that Picasso had already discovered neo-expressionism and was, as so often before, ahead of his time.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><strong>Description:<\/strong> <span class=\"first3words\">INSCRIBED &amp; SIGNED BY PABLO PICASSO! <\/span>Black paper covers with gilt design of a bird, white lettering, with each plate on a separate page, 2 pages of English text.
