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 visitor observes paintings during the opening of an exhibition at the Nérolium in Vallauris, part of the festivities for Pablo Picasso's 80th birthday. In the modern gallery, a traditionally framed figurative work hangs opposite two unframed Cubist canvases. The quiet, contemplative atmosphere is enhanced by the lighting, which highlights the artworks while casting the viewer into softer shadow. Vallauris, 29 October 1961.
