Opening of the exhibition at the Nérolium, Vallauris. Festivities put on in Pablo Picasso's honor for the 80th birthday. Vallauris 29.10.1961.

A quiet moment during the opening of an exhibition at the Nérolium in Vallauris, held in honor of Pablo Picasso's 80th birthday on 29 October 1961. A lone visitor contemplates a painting of a mother and child in a neoclassical style. To its left hang a large, horizontal cubist painting of a reclining nude and another work depicting two standing figures. The stark, white-walled gallery, with its exposed beams and columns, focuses attention entirely on the art.
