Exposition Pablo Picasso 1970-1972. 201 peintures. 23.5.-23.9.1973. Palais des Papes, Avignon. Festival d'Avignon 1973. (Avignon II)
At the 1973 Festival d'Avignon, an exhibition of Pablo Picasso's late paintings (1970-1972) was held within the Palais des Papes. This installation shows ten works arranged in two horizontal rows against a rough stone wall. The bold, abstract figures, many depicting musketeers—a recurring theme of the artist's final years—feature varied color palettes ranging from muted blues and greys to vibrant reds and yellows. A braided rope barrier runs along the bottom of the display.
