Pablo Picasso and Françoise Gilot at the Madoura pottery. Vallauris 23.3.1953.

Pablo Picasso intently examines a ceramic pitcher decorated with a face at the Madoura pottery in Vallauris in March 1953. Standing beside him, Françoise Gilot looks on with a gentle smile, holding a small card. The rustic workshop is filled with the tools and products of the craft; behind them, rough wooden shelves are crowded with unfired bowls and vases under heavy, exposed beams. The overall atmosphere is one of creative work and quiet interaction.
