Pablo Picasso working with the help of Hidalgo Arnéra on linogravure rehaussée, the so called épreuves rincées (rinsed proofs). Mas Notre-Dame-de-Vie, Mougins 1964.

In a bathroom transformed into a makeshift studio at his Mas Notre-Dame-de-Vie home in Mougins, Pablo Picasso works with printer Hidalgo Arnéra in 1964. Picasso, on the right, examines a piece of paper while Arnéra leans over a fresh print in the foreground. The two are engrossed in the complex process of "linogravure rehaussée"—so-called "épreuves rincées" (rinsed proofs)—with bowls of ink and materials arranged around the tiled sink, creating a scene of focused, intimate collaboration.
