Mas Notre-Dame-de-Vie, Mougins 1974. (Photographed after Pablo Picasso’s death.)

Photographed in 1974 at Mas Notre-Dame-de-Vie in Mougins after Pablo Picasso’s death, this close-up shows a stylized, anthropomorphic figure of burnished metal. Mounted on a paneled surface, the decorative plaque or door knocker is reminiscent of pre-Columbian art. It features a large head with a detailed headdress, almond-shaped eyes, and a stout body with hands clasped at the chest. Soft light highlights the iridescent copper and purple sheens on the dark, reflective metal, emphasizing its intricate contours and texture.
