"Hommage à Pablo Picasso. Dessins. Sculptures. Céramiques". Exposition Musée Petit Palais. 19.11.1966-12.2.1967

Visitors at the "Hommage à Pablo Picasso" exhibition at the Musée Petit Palais in 1966. A collection of the artist's tall, slender, dark-metal sculptures stands on a low, gravel-covered platform, casting stark shadows on the brightly lit wall behind. In the right foreground, a large, heavily textured sculpture looms. Onlookers, some in silhouette, observe the works, while two men—one in a distinctive flat-topped hat—appear to be in conversation.
