By
The Seibu Museum of Art, 1981. Soft cover. Very Good. Bilingual catalog in French and Japanese, inscribed and annotated by Maya Ruiz-Picasso (1935-2022), eldest daughter of the painter, documenting an exhibition furnished from her collection.

An inscription on the title page offers the catalog as a gift to friends in memory of a visit in 1993; those friends laid in two notes left for them from Maya during their visit. A handful of pages bear annotations from Maya, including a note to a portrait of herself as a toddler, First Snow (1938): "was my first time seeing snow falling."

A unique copy of a scarce catalog.

Shelf wear to the soft covers, with pronounced crease along the lower front corner. 11.75 x 8.75
