Pablo Picasso works on "La Pique" at the Madoura pottery. Vallauris 23.3.1953.
At the Madoura pottery in Vallauris on 23 March 1953, Pablo Picasso is captured from a high-angle perspective, deeply focused on his work. He leans forward at a wooden workbench, using a paintbrush to apply details to the square ceramic plate known as “La Pique,” which features a bold, graphic design of a stylized face. The artist’s cluttered workspace includes a palette and various brushes, while his black-rimmed eyeglasses rest on a pile of handwritten notes in the foreground, signifying a quiet moment of artistic creation.
