Le Cocu Magnifique I by Pablo Picasso

  • Year: 1968
  • Technique: Hand-signed and numbered etching
  • Size: 37 x 48 cm
  • Edition: 30

This print was originally published in the first edition of the play Le Cocu Magnifique, written by Fernand Crommelynck. The play tells the story of a man consumed by jealousy. Picasso (Málaga, 1881 - France, 1973) maintained a long-standing relationship with Crommelynck and had expressed his intention to illustrate the work long before the book was finally published in 1968. The edition includes 12 engravings created by the celebrated artist, in which Picasso represents the key moments of the story with a free and almost primitivist style.

Pablo Picasso was a Spanish artist (Málaga, Spain, 1881–Mougins, France, 1973), considered a central figure in 20th-century art. He trained in A Coruña, Barcelona, and Madrid, and developed much of his career in France. His work included painting, drawing, sculpture, printmaking, ceramics, stage design, and writing.

His career was marked by constant experimentation with languages, techniques, and forms of representation. Together with Georges Braque, he was one of the driving figures behind Cubism, a movement that transformed the way space and the figure were represented. Works such as Les Demoiselles d’Avignon, from 1907, held at MoMA, and Guernica, from 1937, held at the Museo Reina Sofía, are among his most emblematic works.

His work is part of collections such as the Museo Reina Sofía, MoMA, The Metropolitan Museum of Art, Tate, Centre Pompidou, Guggenheim Museum, and Museu Picasso in Barcelona. He has presented exhibitions in institutions such as MoMA, the Musée des Arts Décoratifs in Paris, Museo Reina Sofía, Tate Modern, Centre Pompidou, and Guggenheim Museum.
