Pablo Picasso works on "La Pique" at the Madoura pottery. Vallauris 23.3.1953.

Pablo Picasso looks directly at the camera from his cluttered workbench at the Madoura pottery in Vallauris, 23 March 1953. Dressed in a dark V-neck sweater over a collared shirt, his hands are poised over large ceramic plates as he works on his piece "La Pique". The rustic, brightly lit studio is filled with the tools of a ceramicist—bowls of liquid, jars of brushes, and a gooseneck lamp hanging over the table. Large multi-paned windows illuminate the authentic creative space.
