Pablo Picasso at Le Fournas with sculpture "Petite fille sautant à la corde". Vallauris 1950.

In his rustic workshop at Le Fournas in Vallauris, 1950, Pablo Picasso stands beside his monumental assemblage sculpture, "Petite fille sautant à la corde." The artist, wearing a beret and tweed jacket, directs a focused gaze toward the camera. The striking figure is constructed from found objects, including a large wicker basket for its torso and thick rope for its arms, all unified by a white, plaster-like coating. The studio's rough-textured walls and exposed wooden beams complete the scene.
