In 1968, near the end of his life, Picasso made 347 etchings that
show his interest in television and film, wrestling, and the female
nude. Some of the prints refer to old Celestina, the cunning
marriage arranger featured in Fernando de Rojas's play. Others
investigate the aging process, voyeurism, the orientalized setting
of the harem, and explicit lovemaking as the Pope looks on. When
the etchings were exhibited in Paris, and later Chicago, there was
heated controversy on their status as pornography. In both cities
the works were censored. Memory Holloway examines Suite 347 as a
summary of the themes of Picasso's work, set in the context of the
student conflicts of May 1968 and his continuing experimentation as
a printmaker.
