Pablo Picasso with wooden sculpture "L’enfant". La Californie, Cannes 1956.

Seated in a wicker armchair in his studio at the Villa La Californie, Cannes, in 1956, Pablo Picasso fixes the camera with a penetrating gaze. His hand rests on his wooden sculpture, 'L’enfant', a construction of a dark circular disc on a stand. He is surrounded by the creative clutter of his work; canvases are stacked around the room, with a large Cubist painting visible directly behind him. Soft light from a paned window illuminates the artist's intense presence.
