Manuel Pallarès i Grau on the flat roof of the house where by Pablo Picasso and his family lived in Calle de la Merced. Basilica de la Merced in the background. Barcelona 1970.

In 1970 Barcelona, Manuel Pallarès i Grau walks across the sun-drenched rooftop of the house on Calle de la Merced where Pablo Picasso and his family once lived. Dressed in a dark coat and fedora, he moves through a cluttered urban space of drying laundry and television antennas. Above the surrounding buildings, the intricately tiled dome and stone bell tower of the Basilica de la Merced rise into the clear sky, contrasting with the domestic details of the foreground.
