Still Life with a Mandolin Art Print

Picasso spent the summer of 1924 in Juan-les-Pins on the Mediterranean, and the monumental still lifes he created there show the influence of Matisse in their decorative vitality and flat, vivid colours. A fruit dish (resembling a face in profile), a bottle and a mandolin are arranged on a patterned tablecloth, while bushes and cacti are silhouetted against a nocturnal sky. The forms are reduced to distorted yet identifiable shapes, painted in bold, rhythmic style.

National Gallery of Ireland Art Prints are the perfect way to have your own masterpiece. Printed on high quality 240gsm Satin paper using Epson Ultrachrome Archival inks, each print have a stated light fastness and image permanence of up to, at least 75 years. In order to preserve the image and prevent unnecessary fading, the print should not be exposed to direct sunlight and its UV rays.

All prints have the title and artist's name printed at the bottom of each reproduction.
