Pablo Picasso washing a linocut print to remove surplus ink. Mas Notre-Dame-de-Vie, Mougins 1964.

Pablo Picasso is captured in profile, leaning over a sink in a moment of intense concentration. Dressed in a sweater and dark-rimmed glasses, his hands are submerged in the basin as he carefully washes a linocut print to remove surplus ink. This candid scene from the artist’s creative process took place at his home, Mas Notre-Dame-de-Vie in Mougins, 1964.
