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

Pablo Picasso, seen from behind in a white knitted sweater, creates a charcoal drawing of the view from his studio, Le Fournas. The artist is focused on the large canvas, depicting a simple line drawing of the local townscape with its block-like buildings and tall smokestack. This intimate moment of creation was captured in Vallauris on 26 June 1953, during the filming of Luciano Emmer's documentary. The studio is filled with other works, including decorative plates and canvases in Cubist and abstract styles, offering a glimpse into his lived-in creative environment.
