Pablo Picasso in 1956, on the occasion of his 75th birthday on 25.10. La Californie, Cannes 1956.
Photographed on his 75th birthday at his villa La Californie in Cannes in 1956, Pablo Picasso sits in a wicker armchair, his arms and legs crossed. He gazes intensely at the camera, surrounded by large celebratory bouquets of flowers. The room is filled with his work: behind him, a board displays four linocut portraits, while stacks of ceramic plates and rolled canvases attest to the space's function as a studio.
