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

In the unconventional setting of a bathroom at his Mas Notre-Dame-de-Vie home, Pablo Picasso works on a linogravure rehaussée in 1964. Captured from a high angle, the artist is seen in profile, applying ink with a wide brush to one of several blocks laid out before him. This specific technique, known as *épreuves rincées* (rinsed proofs), unfolds in an intimate, domestic space, with a sink and tiled walls visible in the background in Mougins.
