A painting by Pablo Picasso, numbered "152," hangs on a textured wall during the "Pablo Picasso 1969-1970" exhibition at the Palais des Papes in Avignon, 1970. The cubist-style work depicts two figures in an intimate embrace. The figure on the left is shown in profile with dark, curly hair, while the other presses a distorted, angular face against them. The palette is composed of pinks, greys, black, and white, applied with expressive, visible brushstrokes.
