Description
Celebrate one of the 20th century’s most influential artistic icons and his profound commitment to peace with this rare original Picasso “Paix Désarmement” vintage peace movement poster from 1960. Beautifully printed in France and professionally linen-backed for preservation, this striking lithograph features Picasso’s signature dove motif—a universal symbol of peace and hope—combined with powerful period typography demanding global disarmament.
Created in 1952 and adapted in 1960 to support the Mouvement de la Paix (French Peace Movement), this poster merges Picasso’s post-war humanism with modernist design, capturing both the artist’s iconic style and his lifelong advocacy against nuclear proliferation during the Cold War. An exceptional collector’s piece that resonates as strongly today as when first issued.
After the devastation of World War II, Picasso became a vocal and visual champion for anti-war causes, creating imagery that transcended national borders. This poster is referenced in the authoritative Picasso raisonne of posters (Czwiklitzer #150; Mourlot 214; Bloch 712). In excellent condition with no restoration. Each poster includes a Certificate of Authenticity. We use sturdy, appropriate packaging to ensure it arrives safely.
