Printer Hidalgo Arnéra at his printing press with a Pablo Picasso linocut. Vallauris 1960.

Printer Hidalgo Arnéra leans intently over his industrial printing press, carefully wiping a large linocut plate by Pablo Picasso. The plate is etched with the bold, stylized design of a plant, its carved lines clearly visible. Surrounded by the heavy machinery of his workshop, Arnéra is captured in a moment of concentrated, hands-on craftsmanship. Vallauris, 1960.
