Pablo Picasso works on "Picador et torero" at the Madoura pottery. Vallauris 23.3.1953.
In the Madoura pottery workshop in Vallauris, Pablo Picasso looks toward the camera with an intense gaze. He presents a large, oval ceramic platter, "Picador et torero," decorated with a bullfighting scene rendered in a simple, expressive style. The numbers "23." and "3." are visible at the top of the piece, marking the date: March 23, 1953. Dressed in a V-neck sweater, Picasso holds a small, smoking cigarette along with his freshly decorated work, surrounded by the creative clutter of his studio.
