Pablo Picasso at work at the Madoura pottery in Vallauris. Above him is a statue of Saint-Claude, the patron saint of the potters, whose name was given to his younger son. Vallauris 23.3.1953.
Pablo Picasso, absorbed in his craft at the Madoura pottery workshop in Vallauris, 23 March 1953. Illuminated by natural light, he sits at a large wooden workbench laden with ceramic items in various stages of completion. The rustic room is filled with the tools of the trade, its well-worn character defined by a brick-paved floor and exposed ceiling beams. High on the wall above him stands a statue of Saint-Claude, the patron saint of potters, whose name was given to Picasso’s younger son.
