A Pablo Picasso linoblock in the garden of lthe priter Hidalgo Arnéra. Vallauris 1960.

In the garden of printer Hidalgo Arnéra in Vallauris, a linoblock by Pablo Picasso rests on the gravelly ground. The rectangular block features an incised botanical scene with stylized plants, a dragonfly, and a grasshopper. The date "25.6.56." is faintly visible etched in the top left corner. Photographed in 1960, the block is set against a sunlit, weathered stone wall and a leafy bush that casts a dark, complex shadow.
