Pablo Picasso illuminating paintings. La Californie, Cannes 1955.

In his studio at the villa La Californie in Cannes, 1955, Pablo Picasso adjusts a multi-headed lamp to illuminate his work. Seen in profile, the artist is surrounded by canvases in various styles, propped against each other on the chevron-patterned parquet floor. Among them are a classic Cubist portrait of a seated woman and a larger painting of a bare-chested figure whose face is a composite of frontal and profile views.
