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.

At their home, La Galloise, Pablo Picasso gestures toward an easel displaying his children's artwork. Encouraged by his father, young Claude has created a portrait of him, which he and his sister, Paloma, observe intently. Their mother, Françoise Gilot, stands behind them, her hands resting on Claude’s shoulders. On the wall behind Picasso hangs a family silhouette dated "7.9.52." and another cubist-style drawing. Vallauris, 16 April 1953.
