La Californie, Cannes 1956.
A corner of Pablo Picasso’s studio at his Cannes villa, La Californie, in 1956. A wooden desk is laden with objects, including a carved sculpture of a head and various art supplies. Above, a Cubist sketch of a bull’s head and a simple rooster drawing are tacked to the wall beside a stylized tribal mask. The scene captures the rich creative environment where modernist works and ‘primitive’ art coexisted within the artist's home.
