Pablo Picasso fixing the charcoal in the painting "Femme nue allongé [Grand nu allongé]". Nice, Studios de la Victorine 1955.

In the Studios de la Victorine in Nice, 1955, a shirtless Pablo Picasso works with intense concentration. Hunched over, his face just inches from the large canvas, he fixes the charcoal on his painting, "Femme nue allongé [Grand nu allongé]". Lean and sinewy in dark shorts, the artist holds a small jar while bringing a tool to his mouth. The mixed-media artwork features an outlined figure set against a background of patterned floral wallpaper.
