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

With deep concentration, printer Hidalgo Arnéra leans over his press in his Vallauris workshop in 1960. His right hand tends to a large linocut plate by Pablo Picasso, its surface etched with an intricate, stylized floral design. Focused lighting illuminates his face and the artwork, casting the complex mechanics of the surrounding press—its rollers and large gears—into shadow.
