Drawing lesson given by Pablo Picasso to his children Claude Picasso and Paloma Picasso with boxer dog Jan. La Galloise, Vallauris 16.4.1953.

In a warm, domestic scene at his home, La Galloise, in Vallauris, Pablo Picasso gives a drawing lesson to his children, Claude and Paloma. With his hands resting on their shoulders, the artist looks down at a large child's drawing propped on an easel. Claude, in a cardigan and suspenders, studies the work intently, while Paloma stands beside him in a pinafore. In the foreground, their boxer dog, Jan, sits with its back to the camera, looking up as if part of the audience. The photograph was taken on April 16, 1953.
