Hidalgo Arena's printing press with a Picasso linocut. Vallauris 1960. - Photo by Edward Quinn

Hidalgo Arena's printing press with a Picasso linocut. Vallauris 1960.

A Picasso linocut, engraved with a stylized abstract portrait, rests on the bed of Hidalgo Arena's printing press in Vallauris, 1960. Composed of bold lines and intricate patterns, the glossy surface of the plate catches a bright reflection of light. The surrounding machinery, dark and in shadow, creates a strong contrast that isolates and highlights the artwork.
