This Georges Braque very rare vintage 1953 Mid Century Modernist Mourlot fine art lithograph print custom framed Paris exhibition poster is an incredibly special and unique piece to add to your collection.
The fine art lithograph print exhibition poster is published by the famous Galerie Berggruen & Cie, printed in France in 1953 in an unnumbered limited edition of 750 by Mourlot Paris, on the occasion of the " Braque Graveur " exhibition.
This is a rare opportunity for true Braque and Mid Century Modernism fans and collectors as this coveted image fine art lithograph print poster is long out of print and very scarce to find.
Georges Braque ( 1882 - 1963 ) was a major 20th Century French painter, collagist, printmaker, and sculptor. His most important contributions to the history of art were his alliance with fauvism, and the role he played in the development of Cubism. Closely associated with his colleague Pablo Picasso, their respective Cubist works were indistinguishable for many years. Working closely together, thus the invention of the Cubist style was a joint effort between Braque and Picasso. Artworks by Braque are included in the collections of many of the world's most prestigious museums.
The Galerie Berggruen & Cie in Paris was founded in 1947 by art dealer and collector Heinz Berggruen ( 1914 - 2007 ). The gallery under the direction of Berggruen played a major role in the post World War II reception and dissemination of Modern Art, representing such influential artists as Pablo Picasso, Henri Matisse, Georges Braque, Joan Miro, Fernand Leger, and Paul Klee among many others. Berggruen cultivated one of the most important and valuable private collections of Modern European Art in The Twentieth Century.
The venerable famous printing house of Imprimerie Mourlot Paris was founded in 1852 by The Mourlot Family. It is known worldwide for its fine art lithography printing, and one of their most important contributions was to be the art poster. Mourlot became the place where posters were prepared and produced as works of art in their own right.
The rare out of print Modernist framed Paris exhibition poster measures 20 3/8" W X 28 1/4" H X 1 3/8" D. It is custom framed with UV protective plexiglass in a Contemporary Modern recessed detail satin eggshell finish black metal frame molding, with an attached hanging wire on the reverse back side for easy wall installation.

It is brand newly custom framed and has never been displayed. Please see photos for condition reference. It is now being offered here for an excellent price. less
