Drawing lesson given by Pablo Picasso and Françoise Gilot to Claude Picasso and Paloma Picasso. La Galloise, Vallauris 16.4.1953.

Françoise Gilot lies on her stomach on a plush carpet, engrossed in a drawing lesson for her children, Claude and Paloma Picasso. Her son, Claude, stands just behind her, looking down with intense curiosity as she works. In the background of their villa, La Galloise, Pablo Picasso sits on a daybed covered with a patterned blanket, holding a cigarette. Several large rolls of paper are stacked on the bed behind him. Vallauris, 16 April 1953.
