Printer Hidalgo Arnéra with Pablo Picasso linoblocks in his garden. Vallauris 1960.

In his garden in Vallauris, printer Hidalgo Arnéra smiles warmly as he presents two linoblocks created by Pablo Picasso in 1960. Dressed in a rumpled work coat, he holds one block depicting stylized nude figures in a landscape, dated "1.12.59.", and another featuring an abstract portrait. Strong sunlight coming from the right casts a sharp shadow of the man and the artworks onto the gravel path beside a rustic stone wall.
