Printer Hidalgo Arnéra at his printing press with a Pablo Picasso linocut. Vallauris 1960.

Printer Hidalgo Arnéra works with intense concentration at his press in Vallauris, 1960. Seen in profile, his brow slightly furrowed, he leans over a linocut by Pablo Picasso, meticulously wiping the surface of the plate with a cloth. The artwork’s bold, stylized botanical design is clearly visible, set within the heavy, dark metal structure of the press. A large cylinder and a spoked gear wheel frame the artisan in a moment of dedicated craftsmanship.
