Exhibition "Pablo Picasso 1969-1970" (Avignon I), Palais des Papes, Avignon, 1.5.-30.9.1970.

A modernist painting by Pablo Picasso hangs against a weathered wall at the Palais des Papes in Avignon, part of the 1970 exhibition of his recent works. The canvas features two abstract figures. On the right, a large seated figure composed of bold color patches smokes a long pipe, its head a complex construction of shapes and multiple eyes. To the left, a smaller, cherubic figure with a round face and raised arms looks out from the canvas. The composition is defined by distorted perspectives and flattened space.
