About the Artwork

Cast in 23 karat gold and created with François Victor Hugo, this medallion belongs to a rare edition of small sculptures Picasso made to be lived with, not just looked at. Picasso’s medallion brings together two simple ideas: a face and a clock. The face is centered and still, drawn with fine vertical lines, while the border is made up of Roman numerals arranged like the hours of a watch. Time, expression, identity,  all held in something one can wear.

Each piece in the series was produced in an edition of 20, with two artist’s proofs per design, and was cast in a limited edition, signed by the artist, and marked with full assay and atelier stamps. Exhibited individually at Hedonist Gallery, this medallion stands as both an intimate sculpture and a statement of timeless form.
