The fourth ARTBURO lot under the hammer is a custom Hermes Birkin Bag featuring a dazzling hand-painted reproduction of the Spanish Modernist master Pablo Picasso’s monumental painting titled Nude, Green Leaves and Bust.
Painted on March 8, 1932, this deeply erotic artwork portrays Picasso’s then-mistress and muse Marie-Therese Walter in a classical-inspired yet modernistically re-interpreted nude pose along with very symbolic philodendron leaves and a bust in the background. After remaining in private possession of the Brodys of USA for almost six decades and being exhibited publicly just once during their ownership duration, this painting was sold in 2010 for a record sum of USD 106.5 million, the third highest price ever paid for an auctioned artwork ever. Currently this magnificent canvas is displayed on loan at the Tate Modern, London.
While a Hermes Birkin Bag steals the limelight on every occasion with its subtle elegance, a Picasso painting overwhelms the senses with its avant-garde artistic imagery. ARTBURO has irresistibly combined the subtlety of a Birkin and the sensuality of a Picasso to create this sensational custom bag that celebrates feminine beauty and fluid grace. This is the bag for the diva who is confident of her own inner persona and has the confidence to carry it on her arm.
An ARTBURO custom bag is a true collector’s item ever increasing in monetary worth and drawing appreciation from the cognoscenti. However unlike most other art pieces which remain either hidden or are viewed by a very select group, an ARTBURO bag is a piece of wearable art that can accompany the proud owner almost everywhere.
Celebrities and headline-makers across the world get their bags personalized from this custom luxury company. As the company makes a design just once and never repeats it under any circumstances, every ARTBURO bag remains absolutely exclusive.
Each and every ARTBURO bag is custom painted by master artists using the very best quality Italian paints. Despite regular use, the artwork never fades or warps or cracks, neither does it get damaged by exposure to moisture.
This auction is a unique opportunity for the true esthete to get a rare custom Picasso-themed Hermes Birkin that will draw coveting glances anywhere, red carpet events to evening soirees.
