Pablo Picasso and Françoise Gilot with the sculpture "Tête de femme". Le Fournas, Vallauris 1953.

In the rustic studio at Le Fournas, Vallauris, Pablo Picasso and Françoise Gilot stand at a workbench with the sculpture "Tête de femme" in 1953. Gilot, viewed from behind in a distinctive plaid jacket with a prominent fringe, smiles at Picasso. The artist, wearing a dark beret and scarf, looks down, his hands busy near the base of the white plaster bust. Natural light from a window to the right illuminates the scene, casting soft shadows.
