Claude Picasso drawing a portrait of his father. Drawing lesson given by Pablo Picasso to his children Claude Picasso and Paloma Picasso. La Galloise, Vallauris 16.4.1953.

In an intimate scene at his home La Galloise in Vallauris, Pablo Picasso gives a drawing lesson to his children, Claude and Paloma, on 16 April 1953. With a focused and gentle expression, the artist stands behind Paloma, who is at a small easel displaying a child's drawing. In the foreground, her brother Claude sits on the patterned floor, looking up at the lesson. The casual, lived-in room is furnished with a patterned armchair and artworks, including a sculpture of a head in profile hanging on the wall.
