Members of the Vilató family. From left Jaime, Pablín, Lolita, at the home of her mother Lola Ruiz Vilató, sister of Pablo Picasso. Pablo Picasso gave the collection his family held in Barcelona (among others the Vilató family, his nephews) to the Museu Pablo Picasso Barcelona. The collection is made up of oil paintings and drawings from his childhood and youth era. Barcelona 1970.

At the Barcelona home of their mother Lola Ruiz Vilató, Pablo Picasso's sister, members of the Vilató family—Jaime, Pablín, and Lolita (from left)—observe two of the artist's early paintings in 1970. On the powder blue wall hang two large canvases: on the left, a first communion scene in a gilded frame, and on the right, an unframed depiction of a woman ill in bed. These works were part of the family collection that Picasso later donated to the Museu Pablo Picasso.
