Pablo Picasso (1881–1973) - Helen at Archimedes'. Technique: Etching on handmade paper Sheet dimensions: 41 x 29 cm, 57 x 46.5 cm (with binding) Signature lower right: from the board Edition: lower right: XII/CCCL. Provenance/Edition: Motif from the book Hélène chez Archimède; print from a numbered edition of 350 copies. A linear, rhythmic composition constructed from grids of dots, arcs, and lines, within which a schematic profile of a figure is drawn – a visual dialogue between the figure and the scientific ”diagram.” The work combines the élan of hand-drawn drawing with the coolness of a graph, perfectly corresponding to the intellectual play of the title.
