In a close-up from 1969, Pablo Picasso’s hands are captured in the act of creation at his home, Mas Notre-Dame-de-Vie, in Mougins. Wearing a heavy, cuffed sweater, his right hand sketches on a pad of paper, while his left, adorned with a ring, rests nearby. He is composing a posthumous dedication, “Pour Sabartés.”
