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

Pablo Picasso lies on his stomach on a dark shag carpet, propped on his elbows as he gives a drawing lesson to his children, Claude and Paloma. At their home, La Galloise, in Vallauris, all three are engrossed in the shared creative act on a large sheet of paper spread across the floor. One child kneels on all fours for a closer look at the emerging artwork, while the other, in a light-colored pinafore, sits with their back to the camera, drawing tool poised. 16 April 1953.
