Drawing lesson given by Pablo Picasso and Françoise Gilot to Claude Picasso and Paloma Picasso. La Galloise, Vallauris 16.4.1953.
At their villa La Galloise in Vallauris, Pablo Picasso observes a family drawing lesson on 16 April 1953. Seated on the edge of a bed with a cigarette, he watches as Françoise Gilot lies on the floor, engrossed in drawing. Their daughter Paloma crouches beside her to watch, while their son Claude stands nearby with his hands clasped behind his back. The scene captures a moment of quiet, creative intimacy in the simply decorated room.
