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

At his home, Mas Notre-Dame-de-Vie in Mougins, Pablo Picasso is captured in a moment of intense concentration, 1964. In an unconventional studio space set up in a bathroom, he leans over a table, applying thick black ink with a wide brush to a large sheet of paper. He is working on a linogravure rehaussée, a technique for creating so-called épreuves rincées (rinsed proofs). The ornate wall tiles and the edge of a bathtub are visible in the background, highlighting the intimate setting of his creative process.
