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

At the light-filled Madoura pottery in Vallauris, Pablo Picasso inspects his rectangular ceramic dish, "Tauromachie," on March 23, 1953. Dressed in a ribbed V-neck sweater, the artist leans forward in concentration, his hands gesturing towards the piece as it rests on a stand. In the foreground, bowls of glazes and paints sit with brushes at the ready, part of a busy studio environment filled with workbenches and canvases.
