Picasso's extensive graphic oeuvre of prints was created throughout the artist's life, reflecting all of his various shifts in style and amounting to more than two thousand works in total. This part of Picasso's overall body of work is represented in the Collection of Prints and Drawings of the National Gallery in Prague by a seminal collection dating to the years 1904 - 1968, ranging from the early Blue and Rose periods to the artist's late work.
The present display, the second part of an exhibition focusing on Picasso's prints, covers the period between 1909 - 1968, enabling viewers to gain an insight into the artist's use of the typical means of expression of this medium, such as etching, drypoint, lithography, and linocut.
In this respect, the National Gallery also commemorates the figure of Daniel-Henry Kahnweiler, the Paris-based gallery owner with whom Picasso was associated for a number of years.
