In the summer of 2013 photographer Catherine Balet and her friend, the stylist Ricardo Martinez Paz, were at the Arles Photography Festival in the South of France. Balet had often been amused by Ricardo's resemblance to Picasso and had always intended to recreate Robert Doisneau's famous image of the painter with loaves for fingers. The publication of these initial images on their Facebook pages aroused such enthusiasm that it prompted them to develop the work. Now three years later the series extends to over 120 images spanning the whole history of photography.
