Inauguration of the Fondation Maeght. With Miró's sculpture "L'Arc" ("The Arch"). Saint-Paul-de-Vence 1964.

The inauguration of the Fondation Maeght in Saint-Paul-de-Vence, 1964, unfolds as a sophisticated outdoor celebration. Captured from a high angle, the photograph shows well-dressed guests mingling on curving stone terraces built into a wooded hillside. Dominating the upper level is Joan Miró's monumental sculpture 'L'Arc' ('The Arch'), near which attendees are seated at long, white-clothed dining tables. The atmosphere is one of a lively, cultivated gathering within a lush, natural setting.
