1955 Madoura Oval Plate by Picasso | Boise Hour 1 Preview

I was never a big fan of Picasso’s work until I saw many examples of his in Chicago in person. I fell in love with his art. It’s completely different in person to me.

[@californiabobby3858]

At no point during the initial purchase did she see the words "Picasso" and numbers written next to it and think.....this....this might be a picasso

[@DTR89]

Let'sPlay -- It's a random plate she bought from a random gallery by a random artist for "$50-100." Picasso had not yet made a name for himself back then... no one would be using the terminology "this might be a Picasso." Not that difficult to understand...

[@georgekay3336]

@@DTR89 My guy, Picasso was extremely famous in the 50's

[@DTR89]

George Kay -- Famous among art circles, and that's all. He didn't reach worldwide pop cultural fame until after death. Therefore no one in the 1950s, particularly an average lady, would've referred to his work as "a Picasso" like the original commenter implied. That lingo (using last name only) came way later, my guy.

[@georgekay3336]

@@DTR89 You might be thinking of Van Gogh. Picasso was like Damien Hurst or Banksy, he was very famous while alive.

Lady: ‘We had no idea it was a Picasso’ Plate: Big Bold Letters: ‘Picasso’

[@bighands69]

If you seen picasso on a plate or a dish would you really think much of it. I know somebody who had a very rare gold coin sitting up in a cupboard and I tried to convince the person that it was extremely valuable and they wanted to give it away to a stranger and it took a lot of effort for me to convince the person not to do so. Most people will not believe what they have is something of value especially if it is old or has been laying around. Now personally cannot stand modern art.

[@barbarjinks8170]

She just loved the piece. Love it.

[@mikeyd946]

What a sweet lady! Love the smile 😊

[@slickrick388]

I like the fact that this show is not fake.

[@snmthecloser]

I mean it couldn’t be more instantly recognized as at the very least a Picasso imitation. True genius is having your style recognized instantly by everyone on earth….except for this woman.

[@gemmel3197]

I just love her.

[@billbright1755]

They took its value when they restored it. The grease was its enduring legacy.

[@Wafflinson]

lol no. Enameled art's value is not based on its patina as it is for furniture and some metalwork. Paintings for example go up in value significantly when restored and cleaned.

[@JaneNewAuthor]

The grease probably kept it in superb condition. A little of the enamel had already come off. Without the grease it could have been a lot more.

[@TarePandaHelp]

I find it hilarious how she's trying to handle it with care but it was hanging above the stove for years.

[@bighands69]

You would be surprised as to what is out there. I know somebody that found an extremely old valuable chair propping up a bench on a farm.

[@CyberBeep_kenshi]

But is it dishwasher proof?

[@suziperret468]

Picasso really knew how to make every stroke count.

[@stevemccarty6384]

Picasso was so famous that he could make his own money. If he bought something he'd take a memo pad from his pocket and sign his name on it. It was worth money and he could buy things with his signature. I tried it once. Didn't work.

[@chicagotypewriter2094]

I’ve heard this same thing with Salvador Dali

[@user-ke4kz3in9j]

[@carlsmith4568]

Art isn’t meant to be preserved perfectly and kept in pristine condition. Art is supposed to be enjoyed by anyone in any way possible. If this woman and her family found enjoyment out of this piece by hanging it over the stove, then I’m sure Picasso would be happy.

This reminds me of an Alexander Calder sculpture that had been sitting in a mall in Lake Grove, NY, on Long Island for so long, it's origin had been forgotten. The $25 million sculpture, the "Janey-Waney", was nearly sold for scrap, until someone recognized it.

[@roberto2568]

i would pay to not have this on the wall

[@geneladner8123]

I've seen plenty of works of "art" by Picasso that I actually like, but I must admit I would never have been drawn to this piece. Doesn't look like a lot of skill or talent was required for it, just the name PICASSO.

[@DiamondCalibre]

Gene Ladner I'm sure that's the point. He teamed up with a mass(ish) producer to make limited edition pieces so the less well off who appreciated his style could own a boiled down Picasso and not break the bank. I mean even today, 10,000-15,000 is pennies compared to the price of a flagship Picasso painting/piece.

[@gilbertmartinez1504]

Gene Ladner I would buy it for the name alone!! But I wouldn't buy anything that said GENE LADNER.

If someone is a collector looking on the back is second nature. I ALWAYS look on the back or bottom. That is where the identification is!

A 5-year-old could have done that. What makes it valuable is the fact that Picasso did it. What is wrong with this picture, as they say?

[@tomfurgas2844]

Picasso could draw like Raphael, but chose to distill his genius for draftsmanship into images of compelling and expressive simplicity.

[@angelina2408]

Beautiful! What a treasure.

[@TheGlassman14]

So it was stamped 'Picasso' and she didn't know it was by him?

[@jasongobbell3578]

[@Actingskint]

There is no accounting for what people consider valuable . I don’t see any skill in this drawing at all. I’d be a poor man in the kings new clothes market .

[@sharksport01]

I kinda get your point but, look at a new car, what it cost... .and where it will be in 20 years.

[@tomfurgas2844]

The simplicity of the drawing on this plate is deceptive. At a casual glance it looks easy and obvious, but it took Picasso a lifetime to be able to distill his draftsmanship genius into a few lines to make images that are compelling and expressive.

[@andywitt5860]

You should Google his portraits. He was a capable artist. Not liking the style is fine, we all have our own tastes, but the breadth of his work is important and shows his skill. If all you think of for Picasso is his later surrealism, I think you're missing his best work earlier in his career. But again, that's my taste.

[@MrCrowebobby]

It's not what it is, but who it's by. Picasso could paint great natural-looking pictures when he was 14. This what he wanted to do, not just what he "could" do.

[@familylifetoo9541]

I agree

[@thepinkpollyanna766]

I have a Picasso white plate in excellent condition & it was made by the Block China company... It has 3, all totally black Spanish Matador Bull Fighters on the front & signed by Picasso in black & is numbered on the back, again with his signature... I inherited from my Great Aunt, who had it hanging on a wall in her dinning room for years... Now, it makes me wonder how much it is worth too???

[@ValleyoftheRogue]

It's not an original sculpture but a limited edition. That is the difference. Picasso did in fact do a lot of pottery, but the pottery is not as valuable as his paintings.

[@julieramage9431]

Picasso made the original designs then the Madoura Pottery made the ceramics and continued to for many years - when I visited the pottery around 2000 they were still selling Picasso editions for around EUR200 (wish I’d bought one)

[@py2007]

THAT is art? Picasso the talented artist did that? I could do that!?

[@sharksport01]

Haha, he didnt start out like that, its how he ended.

[@JohnixFTW]

Even for 10-15k, I don’t think I’d sell, it’s only going to appreciate in value

[@robinholbrook6576]

I’m not sure the appraiser covered all possibilities about the plate. There were a LOT of studio pieces made for mass production. Picasso would do a prototype and apprentices would recreate the piece numerous times. Then the master would come in and sign the piece. I’m not sure how multiples of this plate were run, however. Takes a real expert I guess!

Just because it said Picasso doesn't mean it actually was a Picasso piece. It said it was from a Picasso painting. I don't think I would have figured it to be valuable either. There are lots of cheap items made from paintings for decor. I would never have even considered 15k!!!
