Pablo Picasso on the day of his 75th birthday with flowers he received, some with the Spanish colors. La Californie, Cannes 1956.
On his 75th birthday in 1956, Pablo Picasso sits in a wicker chair at his villa, La Californie, in Cannes. Wearing a patterned jacket and a vibrant cravat, he holds a lit cigarette as he studies a photograph. The artist is surrounded by floral gifts, including a basket of carnations with red bows reflecting the Spanish colors, and a bouquet in a vase shaped like a jockey’s silks. An easel with several portraits stands in the background of the art-filled room.
