A Pablo Picasso linoblock in the garden of the printer Arnéra. Vallauris 1960.

In the garden of printer Arnéra in Vallauris, a linoblock by Pablo Picasso rests on a gravel surface, 1960. The carving depicts two stylized nude female figures in an interior, created with incised white lines on a dark ground. On the left, a woman is seated in profile on an ornate chair; to the right, another stands wearing a wide-brimmed hat. The composition is filled with geometric patterns, and the date "27.8.59" is visible in the upper left-hand corner.
