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

Pablo Picasso kneels on the floor of his studio at La Californie to present a doll to his daughter, Paloma. At right, her brother Claude, dressed for a game of swashbuckler (*cap et épée*) in a cloak and wide-brimmed hat, holds a thin sword. Paloma, wearing a plaid pinafore, studies her gift intently. Behind them, large Cubist paintings are propped against the wall and on an easel. Cannes, Christmas 1955.
