Pablo Picasso works on "Picador et torero" at the Madoura pottery. Vallauris 23.3.1953.

Pablo Picasso, wearing a thick knit sweater, is intently focused on painting the large ceramic plate "Picador et torero" at the Madoura pottery in Vallauris, 23 March 1953. Natural light from two large windows illuminates the rustic studio and his cluttered workbench, which is covered with bowls of glaze, brushes, and other pottery pieces. In the background, between the windows, a small statue of St. Claude stands on a shelf, observing the quiet, focused craftsmanship.
