Published by: Gallerie Louis Leiris, 1969. This was part of the 347 series and is number 256 of that series.

Note: This etching is number 256 of the so called 347 series made by Picasso at the grand old age of 87. Despite the old age of the artist the works are dynamic and amusing - his longevity has taken away none of his creativity. In a 6 month period the artist created 347 etchings - sometimes doing several in the course of a single day. All are dated, signed and numbered. This was a great feat for a man of his age!
