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

At the Madoura pottery in Vallauris, Pablo Picasso is engrossed in painting the large ceramic platter "La Pique" on March 23, 1953. Seated at a table cluttered with the tools of a ceramicist—bowls of glazes, jars of brushes, and a pair of eyeglasses—he carefully applies his paintbrush to the oval dish. The rustic studio, filled with natural light and illuminated by an adjustable lamp, creates an atmosphere of quiet, creative concentration.
