Le Fournas, Vallauris 1953.

A stylized, sculpted head rests on a wooden block on a cluttered workbench at Villa Le Fournas in Vallauris, 1953. The sculpture’s hair is arranged in an updo and decorated with bold, concentric stripes. Rendered in a rough, folk-art style, its face is painted with dark, heavily outlined eyes and eyebrows. The work is surrounded by cans and other objects, with the rest of the studio visible in the out-of-focus background.
