This is one of the 32 illustrations by Picasso from the book 'Sheaf of Fables Without Love' by Camilo José Cela, a work by the Spanish writer illustrated by Pablo Picasso in 1960, based on the painter's childhood. It is believed that this collaboration arose on June 13, 1960 in Cannes (France) when the artist from Malaga read ten poems about his childhood in Malaga to some friends, including the Galician writer. It consists of two volumes bound in leather with 32 illustrations and a drypoint by Pablo Picasso. This drypoint is an original engraving, unsigned, dated "20.3.62" and signed in copper, engraved composition for the book "Gavilla de fabulas sin amor".
