Pablo Picasso working on linogravure rehaussée, the so called épreuves rincées (rinsed proofs). Mas Notre-Dame-de-Vie, Mougins 1964.

Deep in concentration, Pablo Picasso leans over a table in his studio at Mas Notre-Dame-de-Vie, Mougins, in 1964. The artist is absorbed in his work on a *linogravure rehaussée*, a technique known as *épreuves rincées* (rinsed proofs). Wearing a dark V-neck sweater, he dips a paintbrush into a small bowl, his other hand resting for support among the graphic prints spread before him. A distinctive tiled wall forms the background of the candid scene.
