One sheet, This is an original lithographic poster by Pablo Picasso titled "Congrès National du Mouvement de la Paix" (National Congress of the Peace Movement). The poster was created to advertise the conference held on March 10-11, 1962, in Issy-les-Moulineaux, France. The dove featured in the artwork, a well-known symbol of peace, is based on an engraving by Picasso called "The Blue Dove," which is dated December 28, 1961. The work was printed by the Mourlot Studio in Paris. Picasso had been creating doves for peace conferences since 1949, and his dove became a significant international symbol of the peace movement |
