Pablo Picasso brings a cigarette to his lips while watching a bullfight held in his honor in Vallauris, 1955. In the packed grandstand, he is flanked by Jacqueline Roque and an attentive Jean Cocteau. Behind them are his children—Maya, Paloma, and a solemn Claude, who rests his arms on Cocteau’s shoulders. Also pictured is the family’s housekeeper, Inès Sassier, with a patterned scarf around her head. The photograph captures the group's varied expressions, from intense concentration to youthful distraction.
