Pablo Picasso works on "La Pique" at the Madoura pottery. Vallauris 23.3.1953.
Pablo Picasso looks directly at the camera with an intense, focused gaze from his cluttered workbench at the Madoura pottery in Vallauris, 23 March 1953. Wearing a v-neck sweater, he is in the process of painting the large, round ceramic plate "La Pique," which is propped up before him. The artist is surrounded by his tools: bowls of glaze, containers of brushes, and other ceramic pieces. To the right, his eyeglasses rest on a surface beside a rising wisp of smoke.
