Pablo Picasso and Paulo Picasso with tapestry "Les clowns à la lune bleue". La Californie, Cannes 1959.

Pablo Picasso, alongside his son Paulo, inspects the tapestry "Les clowns à la lune bleue" in his light-filled studio at La Californie, Cannes. Dressed in a dark blue shirt and striped trousers, the artist regards the viewer with a contemplative expression while Paulo, seen in profile with a cigarette, helps hold the large work. The cluttered studio is filled with pottery and sculptures, while strong, angled sunlight casts dramatic shadows across the floor. 1959.
