Pablo Picasso holding a cutout figure of a faun, with another faun "seated" on the rocking-chair. Behind Pablo Picasso, two paintings done in 1956. La Californie, Cannes 1956.

In his studio at the Villa La Californie, Cannes, Pablo Picasso holds a cutout figure of a faun, 1956. Another painted faun is seated in a nearby rocking chair. Behind the artist lean two monumental canvases also completed that year: one depicting two large, geometric nudes, the other showing several nudes within an ornate doorway. The modern art populates a grand space whose classical moldings and high ceilings provide a striking contrast.
