Picasso’s War and Peace

PICASSO, Pablo; Claude ROY. La Guerre et la Paix. Paris: Editions Cercle D’Art. 1954.

Folio. Publisher’s oatmeal cloth, with orange belly-band printed in black and white, no dust-jacket (as issued), spine and upper board lettered in burgundy; pp. ‘153’ (i.e. 151), [1], [2 (colophon, blank)], with the two large folding plates in pocket to rear board; slightly shaken; else a very good copy.

First trade edition, one of 6000 copies, of this monumental work on Picasso’s enormous two-panel La Guerre et la paix (War and Peace) – even larger than Guernica – for the deconsecrated Romanesque chapel of the the Château de Vallauris, published five years before the chapel was officially opened to the public and instrumental in publicising the work.

There were also one hundred copies of the édition de tête with an original lithograph by Picasso. To accommodate the vaulted ceilings of the deserted chapel – which Picasso aimed to turn into a ‘temple of peace’ – he structured the panels on thirty-two pieces of hardboard. He made over two hundred and eighty preparatory drawings, several of which are reproduced here. Between 1952 and 1959, the installation ‘remained largely unknown. Claude Roy’s book on La Guerre et la paix [...] brought these large panels to wider attention before the chapel’s public opening’ (Forest, trans.).

Jean Cocteau, who saw the work being created in Picasso’s studio at Fournas – along with, amongst others, Françoise Gilot and Claude Roy, author of the present work – wrote that ‘the first impression [of La Guerre et la paix] is that of a nave, a church; it seems that everyone who enters [the studio] takes off their hat. I take off my hat’ (ibid.). Picasso left the drips of paint as they were, arguing that ‘one doesn’t advise an unhappy person to wipe away their tears’.

Goeppert 67. See Forest, ‘Picasso, la guerre et la paix’, in Michel and Vandenbussche eds, L’idée de paix en France et ses représentations au xxe siècle (2018), pp. 349–54.

Goes great with pressed powder foundation!
Size: 0.4 fl oz (Pack of 1)
I purchased the mini size of this product to keep in my purse. I use the mist with my Jane Iredell pressed powder foundation. I use one spray after the application of Powder and then I use again in the afternoon just for a refresh. It makes my skin glow. It’s lightweight and the application is easy. It doesn’t make the powder feel heavy on my face. highly recommend.

an amazing primer
Style: Brightening
This is an amazing primer. I only use it when I'm dressing up since it is expensive. It has always helped minimize my pores and helped smooth the appearance of my makeup. I've been using this primer for years. I first learned about this makeup brand from my dermatologist. I am acne prone and none of their products break me out.

Best Foundation Primer
Style: Brightening
Works incredibly well as a foundation primer. Once I found this ( a sample given to me) I will never use moisturizer underneath my foundation. This product is amazing at creating the perfect surface for one of my two foundation products - Clinique or Laura Mercier (Depends on the season for me as to which I use!) No pilling of my foundation, which always happened to me even if I used expensive moisturizer! This is so much better. Apply, then give yourself a minute before applying foundation.

LOVE THIS MAKEUP PRIMER
Style: Brightening
I have been using this PRIMER for several months. The makeup goes on much smoother, the age spots are a lot less noticeable, and my makeup last throughout the day. Using Jane Iredale Facial Primer and Brightener is now part of my makeup routine.

Finally, a clean, sheer non-greasy primer and brightener!
Style: Brightening
I fortunately discovered this product several years ago, and have since enjoyed using it daily along with the lightweight tinted moisturizer and other items. I do not look "caked", shiny or oily. Perfect make-up for a natural, healthy appearance. Also, I've noticed benefits to my overall skin condition. I highly recommend Jane Iredale makeup, and coming from a 78 year old lady who likes to look good, that is indeed a compliment.
