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

A cubist-style bust portrait by Pablo Picasso, where a monochromatic figure in grisaille contrasts with a warm background of ochre and yellow. The subject's fragmented face, topped by an elaborate sculptural hat, is animated by dynamic brushwork. The painting is pictured here at the "Pablo Picasso 1969-1970" exhibition, held at the Palais des Papes in Avignon.
