Pablo Picasso and Henri Matarasso, gallery owner and publisher, checking the etching "La Minotauromachie". La Californie, Cannes 1961.

In the creative disarray of his studio at the villa La Californie, Pablo Picasso closely inspects his etching "La Minotauromachie." Seated in a high-backed armchair, the artist leans forward as gallery owner and publisher Henri Matarasso presents the complex print, angling it for his view. This intimate moment of collaboration in Cannes was captured in 1961, with a "TOROS Y TOREROS" poster visible among the stacked canvases and papers in the background.
