Opening of the Picasso Museum Paris (Musée national Picasso Paris), located in the Marais Quarter. Paris 1985.

In the formal garden of a grand stone building in Paris's Marais Quarter, guests gather for the 1985 opening of the Musée national Picasso Paris. An abstract black metal sculpture stands prominently on the manicured lawn as attendees mingle on the steps and at tables. The building’s French classical facade, with its slate mansard roof and tall windows, provides a stately backdrop for the event. The warm light of the late afternoon sun casts long shadows across the scene, which is captured under a clear blue sky.
