Pablo Picasso and Henri Matarasso, gallery owner and publisher, checking the etching "La Minotauromachie". La Californie, Cannes 1961.

At his villa La Californie in Cannes, Pablo Picasso leans forward in deep concentration to examine his etching, "La Minotauromachie". Seated in an armchair with his shirt unbuttoned, the artist studies the complex print held for him by gallery owner and publisher Henri Matarasso. The intimate scene, captured in 1961, is set amidst the creative disarray of the room, where artworks and a copy of the book "Toros y Toreros" are visible in the background.
