In his sculpture studio Le Fournas, Pablo Picasso is observed by a member of Luciano Emmer's film team during a visit to Vallauris in 1953. With arms crossed, the artist stands amidst the creative clutter of his workshop, a rustic space with rough walls and exposed beams. It was here that he assembled figures from his scrap heap, including the sculpture that became known as “La femme à la clé (La Taulière)” or “Woman with a key.”
