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

At his Mas Notre-Dame-de-Vie home in Mougins, 1964, Pablo Picasso works on a linogravure *rehaussée*, a technique known as *épreuve rincée* (rinsed proof). Wearing a dark V-neck sweater and glasses, his face is mostly in shadow as he looks down at his work. He holds a small proof featuring a stylized figure over a larger, stained sheet resting on a flat surface, with a wall of patterned tiles visible in the background.
