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

Printer Hidalgo Arnéra at his industrial press in Vallauris, 1960, during the printing of a Pablo Picasso linocut. Clad in a work coat, Arnéra is intently focused, inspecting a small plate or print in his hands. On the machine’s flatbed rests a larger etched plate with a floral design. A single bare lightbulb clamped to the frame casts a focused light on the scene, creating deep shadows and highlighting the textures of the workshop.
