Pablo Picasso sculpture "L’homme au mouton". Place Paul Isnard, Vallauris, date unknown, about 1978.

A bustling fruit stall animates the daily market on Place Paul Isnard in Vallauris, circa 1978. At the center of the activity stands Pablo Picasso's bronze sculpture, "L'homme au mouton." The heavy stone pedestal of the artwork has been casually incorporated into the display, with a jacket draped over its corner. As one vendor operates a mechanical weighing scale, wooden crates filled with apples and oranges surround the base of the statue, blending public art with everyday commerce. In the background, storefronts line the square beneath leafy plane trees.
