Encouraged by his father, Claude Picasso tries to do a portrait of Pablo Picasso, portraying him with a round face, deep furrows on his forehead, a triangle for a nose, and streaks of hair on the sides of his head. La Galloise, Vallauris 16.4.1953. - Photo by Edward Quinn

Encouraged by his father, Claude Picasso tries to do a portrait of Pablo Picasso, portraying him with a round face, deep furrows on his forehead, a triangle for a nose, and streaks of hair on the sides of his head. La Galloise, Vallauris 16.4.1953.

Encouraged by his father, a young Claude Picasso concentrates on drawing his portrait. His sister Paloma, in a striped apron, rests her hands on the drawing board and looks toward the camera. Pablo Picasso stands behind, his arms encircling his daughter with a watchful, gentle expression. This intimate family scene unfolds at their villa, La Galloise, in Vallauris on 16 April 1953, surrounded by the artist’s own work.
