Outside Madoura pottery, Pablo Picasso reading a letter. On the right Irène Rignault. Vallauris 1953. Car: Ford Vedette 1953

Pablo Picasso stands before his 1953 Ford Vedette, his attention focused on a letter. Dressed in a dark V-neck sweater and corduroy trousers, he examines the crumpled paper outside the Madoura pottery in Vallauris. To the right, Irène Rignault is seen in profile. The car’s prominent round headlight and chrome bumper are visible, with the stucco buildings and cypress trees of the Mediterranean setting in the background. This candid photograph was taken in 1953.
