La Californie, Cannes 1961.

In the artist’s studio at Villa La Californie, Cannes, 1961, two large, modernist portraits of a woman are pinned side-by-side. The high-contrast works depict her first with loose hair and a geometric top, then with a ponytail and a floral shirt. Below, a partially visible "APOLLINAIRE" poster rests amid the creative disarray of stacked frames, a stringed instrument leaning against the wall, and other propped canvases.
