Montblanc Reveals New Pablo Picasso Limited Edition Pens

Montblanc has unveiled two new artisan edition Pablo Picasso limited edition pens. In honor of the Spanish painter and sculptor, Montblanc has created a very unique and creative writing instrument that celebrates his lifetime of achievements.

Beyond his surrealism and cubism paintings he was also a literary inspiration. Between 1935 and 1959 he was a writer of uncontainable passion. His works did not fit any particular category nor did he worry about the rules of grammar. The influential artist wrote three theatrical works as well as 300 poems in the form of a diary that ranged from simple prose to short stories.

The two pens released to pay homage to Pablo Picasso are the Artisan Edition Pablo Picasso Limited Edition 39 and Artisan Edition Pablo Picasso Limited Edition 91. Both pens were created to share design characteristics and his recognition in the cubist movement as well as his other varieties of works. The aesthetics of the pen was mainly derived by the writings of Picasso and the drawing “Portrait de jeune fille” from 1936, while the shape of the fountain pens is based upon the shape of a pencil and the engraving is based on his famous drawing “Ojo”.
