Pablo Picasso reads congratulations letters for his 75th birthday. La Californie, Cannes 1956.

In his studio at the villa La Californie in Cannes, Pablo Picasso reads letters of congratulations for his 75th birthday in 1956. Wearing a horizontally striped shirt, he stands with concentration amidst a creative clutter of his own art, including a stylized fish drawing and a cubist portrait. The torn upholstery of a chair in the foreground adds to the candid, lived-in atmosphere of the space.
