Picasso

Thursday's tie design is taken from Picasso's 1924 cubist painting Mandolin and Guitar and was made in Korea in 1989 for "Picaso" neckties. The single-s spelling of Picasso is presumably to avoid any trademark infringement charges, though that's a pretty iffy tactic if you ask me. On the other hand, this tie is much more vibrant than any I've seen under the official Picasso label.
