For his own amusement and that of his guests, Pablo Picasso strikes a pose, trying on a fedora from his collection at his villa La Californie in Cannes. With the hat tilted to one side, he regards the camera with a serious expression. He stands in a cluttered room filled with his personal effects and works of art, including several mask-like sculptures. Beside him, an assortment of other hats lies on a surface next to an ornate mirror. 1956.
