Exhibition "Pablo Picasso 1969-1970" (Avignon I), Palais des Papes, Avignon, 1.5.-30.9.1970.
A cubist painting by Pablo Picasso, photographed at the “Pablo Picasso 1969-1970” exhibition at the Palais des Papes in Avignon. The work depicts two figures locked in an intense kiss, rendered in a largely monochromatic palette with blue accents. The figure on the left has a swirling gray beard and wide-open eyes, while the figure on the right tilts her head back. Thick black strokes and expressive brushwork contribute to the raw energy of the scene, set against a divided background of muted tones and vertical stripes.
