At his Cannes villa, La Californie, Pablo Picasso celebrates Christmas in 1956. He stands in a plaid shirt, looking on as children—including Claude and Paloma Picasso, Catherine Hutin, and Jan—are gathered on the floor with their gifts. Among them is Esmeralda, the goat Jacqueline had recently given to the artist. The room, filled with Picasso’s own whimsical sculptures and ceramics, is dominated by a large, brightly decorated tree, with Jacqueline and the Sassier family also present for the festivities.
