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

A vibrant painting by Pablo Picasso, photographed at the "Pablo Picasso 1969-1970" exhibition in the Palais des Papes, Avignon. The artwork portrays a stylized musketeer in a wide-brimmed hat, his cubist face rendered in planes of grey and white. Dressed in a bright yellow doublet with red chevron patterns, he grasps the hilt of a sword. The composition is set against a starkly divided background of expressive red and deep blue. This piece, numbered "67" for the exhibition, was on view from May to September 1970.
