Exposition Pablo Picasso 1970-1972. 201 peintures. 23.5.-23.9.1973. Palais des Papes, Avignon. Festival d'Avignon 1973. (Avignon II)

Visitors observe works from the exhibition “Pablo Picasso 1970–1972” at the Palais des Papes in Avignon during the 1973 festival. Displayed against the rough stone walls of the historic palace, a selection of paintings is arranged in a grid, with a large reclining nude hanging above several smaller portraits and figure studies. The scene is illuminated by cool, bright light streaming through the tall, arched windows.
