Pablo Picasso with Claude Picasso in "swashbuckler" ("cap et épée") dress. Paloma Picasso with doll. La Californie, Cannes, Christmas 1955.

Pablo Picasso sits cross-legged on the floor of his studio at the Villa La Californie, flanked by his children, Claude and Paloma. To his left, Claude is dressed as a swashbuckler (“cap et épée”), complete with a feathered hat, cape, and toy sword. To the right, his sister Paloma kneels. Picasso smiles, holding a large doll in his lap. The scene, set against a backdrop of the artist's large Cubist canvases, unfolds in Cannes during Christmas of 1955.
