Printer Hidalgo Arnéra with a proof. Vallauris 1960.

In his Vallauris workshop in 1960, printer Hidalgo Arnéra intently inspects a proof. Seen in profile, he holds the large rectangular artwork with both hands, his gaze fixed upon the piece. The print features an abstract, cubist-style portrait of a face, intricately formed as a calligram from lines of tiny text. In the background, a printing press and tall stacks of paper are visible.
