In Pablo Picasso’s studio at La Californie, a corner was reserved for hats and masks given to him by friends. Photographed in 1956, an ornate chest of drawers stands against a rococo-paneled wall, its surface laden with fedoras, a straw hat, a small clock, and various boxes. A primitive-style mask with large eyes hangs nearby, while a large, carved mirror reflects more of the eclectic, personal collection.
