Note: | Francisco Bores: A major Spanish painter, designer, illustrator and printmaker, Francisco Bores first studied art in Madrid at the Cecilio Pla Academy (1916). Francisco Bores began participating in Spanish National Exhibitions as early as 1922. In 1925 he moved to the Montparnasse district of Paris. |
In Paris, Francisco Bores became friends with a number of leading Surrealist painters and writers, such as, Jean Cocteau, Louis Aragon, Andre Breton and Paul Eluard. By 1929, however, his prints and paintings moved towards a more realist and less abstract plane. Important exhibitions of Francisco Bores's art took place in Zurich (1929), The Hague (1932), Brussels (1934), London (1935), Chicago (1936), Stockholm (1937) and New York (1939). In 1946 he participated in the famous School of Paris Exposition, Berne. Francisco Bores was appointed 'Officier de l'Ordre des Arts et des Lettres' by the government of France in 1966. | |
The Woman in Blue was commissioned by the Paris publication, Verve, and was bound into their 1952 double number volume. Both sides of the sturdy, wove paper were used for printing and therefore a black and white lithograph entitled People of Distinction Strolling appears on the verso of this original colour lithograph. | |
Verve: From 1937 to 1960 Verve was a leader for promoting modern movements in art. Printed and published in Paris, this periodical contained articles on and by leading contemporary artists. More importantly, each issue contained at least one original print created specifically for the publication. | |
