Pablo Picasso and André Weill, publisher of some deluxe editions of Pablo Picasso's work, Michel Leiris, his wife Louise Leiris, owner with Daniel-Henry Kahnweiler of the Leiris Gallery Paris, partly hidden Pierre Baudouin and an unknown person (printer?). La Californie, Cannes 1959.

At his villa La Californie in Cannes, 1959, Pablo Picasso gestures intently over a large sketchbook held open by his publisher, André Weill. To the artist's left, writer Michel Leiris peers closely at the page, while his wife, Louise Leiris—co-owner of the renowned Parisian gallery—looks on. Behind them, Pierre Baudouin is partially visible among the group gathered in the art-filled studio to review the work.
