Pablo Picasso doing a charcoal drawing of the view from Le Fournas during filming of Luciano Emmer's documentary. Vallauris 26.6.1953.

Seated in profile in his Vallauris studio, Le Fournas, Pablo Picasso is a figure of deep concentration. He works on a charcoal drawing, its bold, modern lines depicting a hillside town on a canvas propped on a paint-splattered easel. The artist, wearing a simple knit shirt, was being filmed for Luciano Emmer's documentary on June 26, 1953. The cluttered background, with other canvases partially visible, offers an intimate glimpse into his creative space.
