Pablo Picasso and Françoise Gilot at Le Fournas with sculpture "Petite fille sautant à la corde". Vallauris 1950.

Pablo Picasso and Françoise Gilot observe the sculpture "Petite fille sautant à la corde" in the artist's rustic studio at Le Fournas, Vallauris, in 1950. Picasso, wearing a dark beret, stands with one hand raised as if in mid-explanation. Gilot, dressed in a plaid jacket with her hands in her pockets, gazes at the work with deep concentration. The large assemblage, constructed from a wicker basket and various found objects, rests on a workbench between the two figures, its corrugated head and simple face the focus of their attention.
