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

A Cubist artwork by Pablo Picasso, numbered 133, hangs on a grey block wall at the Palais des Papes in Avignon, part of the 1970 exhibition "Pablo Picasso 1969-1970". The painting depicts an abstracted reclining figure, its head a complex fusion of faces, one wearing a wavy, yellow hat. An arm featuring the blue and white stripes of a sailor’s shirt rests on the large, pale torso. Bold black outlines and a flattened perspective define the composition, which is framed by curtain-like forms.
