Pablo Picasso with Claude Picasso in "Swashbuckler" ("cap et épée") dress. La Californie, Cannes, Christmas 1955.

At his La Californie studio in Cannes during Christmas of 1955, Pablo Picasso sits on the polished floor amidst his Cubist paintings. To his right, his son Claude wears a "cap et épée" or swashbuckler costume, complete with a cape, a wide-brimmed hat with a feather, and a prop sword. Picasso, dressed in a cardigan and tie, turns his attention to a young girl who sits beside him holding a large doll. Canvases are propped against the walls, surrounding the intimate family scene with the powerful artistic environment of the studio.
