Social History: These cards showcase masterpieces from two distinct and celebrated periods of Pablo Picasso's career, offering a beautiful study of his stylistic evolution.

"Mother and Child" (Maternité): This piece originates from Picasso’s Blue Period (c. 1901–1904), characterized by somber blue tones and themes of poverty and melancholy. It depicts a mother and infant by the sea, reflecting the artist's deep emotional exploration of human connection during his early years in Paris and Barcelona.

"Boy Leading a Horse": This work marks Picasso's transition into his Rose Period (c. 1905–1906). The palette shifts to warmer ochres, pinks, and oranges. Picasso’s encounters with circus performers heavily influenced this era and saltimbanques in Montmartre, representing a softer, more poetic view of life.
