A very interesting group for understanding the creative methodology by which Picasso, with the close involvement of his printer, worked his way in linocut towards a finished image. Three impressions in all: the first, second, and third and final states, each materialising the steps of the creative process followed by Picasso in achieving his final composition.Baer's second state of three, II (of III.B.b.).
Printed in chocolate brown over the first state. Baer records two to three such impressions.
Inscribed "Linogravure originale de Picasso. Femme à la Source. Epreuve d'éssai. Deuxième état final avec le brun définitif" in pencil.
