(Picasso invented the ëreduction" method, progressively cutting the same linoblock for each new colour,
making it impossible to take any further prints from the original plates.
In 1962, in collaboration with Picasso and Galerie Louise Leiris, new linoleum plates were made at 42%
of the original size, and it was from these that the prints were made
.)
