Pablo Picasso works on the plate "Picador et torero" at the Madoura pottery in Vallauris 23.3.1953.
With intense dark eyes and a slight, knowing smile, Pablo Picasso looks up from his work at the Madoura pottery in Vallauris. On 23 March 1953, he sits at a cluttered wooden table, a slender paintbrush poised in his hand above the rectangular ceramic platter “Picador et torero”. Dressed in a V-neck knit sweater, he is surrounded by the tools of his craft—jars of brushes, ceramic bowls, and his eyeglasses resting nearby—in the softly lit, rustic studio.
