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

One of Pablo Picasso's large, unframed paintings hangs against the stone walls of the Palais des Papes for the exhibition "Pablo Picasso 1969-1970" in Avignon. The Cubist-style work features a figure with a fragmented face and a wide-brimmed hat holding a stylized object resembling an instrument. Energetic brushwork defines the abstract shapes in red and ochre, set against a split background of yellow and green. A small white label with the number "73," affixed to the wall, marks the painting's installation for the 1970 event.
