Signpost "La Guerre et La Paix", Vallauris 1961

On a sunlit street corner in Vallauris, 1961, a collection of signs directs passersby. The most prominent is an arrow pointing to the Musée National, advertising Pablo Picasso’s monumental work, 'La Guerre et la Paix'. Above it, smaller signs indicate the workshops of local potters and artisans such as D.M. Baudart and Claude Hille. The post stands against a stone building with a fluted column, while strong sunlight casts deep, sharp shadows across the scene, giving it texture and depth.
