347 Series
The 347 Series or 347 Suite is a series of etchings by the Spanish artist Pablo Picasso executed between March 16 and October 8 1968.[1] The work was Picasso's largest in terms of the number of individual prints in the series; and his penultimate large etching series before the 156 Series of 1969-72. It was dedicated to his friend Jamie Sabartes.[2] No name was given by Picasso to the series. The 347 series was first displayed at the Art Institute of Chicago and Paris's Gallerie Lousie Leris in 1970.[3]
Picasso was assisted by the Parisian printers Aldo and Piero Crommelynck, who had established an etching workshop near Picasso's Mougins residence.[4]
