Hidalgo Arnéra's printing press with a Pablo Picasso linocut. Vallauris 1960.
A linocut by Pablo Picasso is locked into the printing press of Hidalgo Arnéra in Vallauris, 1960. This high-contrast view focuses on the carved plate as a large metal roller presses down on a sheet of paper. The stylized image features the profile of a figure with flowing hair set against a geometric landscape and dynamic, swirling patterns. Intense light catches the sheen on both the roller and the raised surfaces of the block, throwing the surrounding machinery into deep shadow.
