These particular prints, titled 'Tête d'homme' (Head of a Man), are offset lithographs created in 1964, as part of a series associated with "Le Carnet Picasso" and potentially a collaboration with Citroën. Offset lithography allowed for the reproduction of artworks in limited editions, making them accessible to a wider audience while still retaining collectible value. The certificate’s indicate they are signed and dated in the plate, meaning the signature is part of the printing process, not an original hand-signature. The "Succession Picasso" designation confirms its authenticity and provenance from the artist's estate.
