A Pablo Picasso linoblock in the garden of linoprinter Arnéra. Vallauris 1960.
A linoblock by Pablo Picasso rests on the gravelly ground in the garden of linoprinter Arnéra in Vallauris, 1960. The artwork, dated "2.12.59.", features a complex mythological scene animated by a dense network of incised lines. A reclining female nude dominates the upper portion, integrated into a landscape with a stylized owl. Below, a frieze of figures includes another nude, a faun-like creature, and a seated musician. Strong daylight casts a sharp shadow from the block against the uneven ground.
