Luncheon at the dining and work table. Pablo Picasso, Jacqueline and Javier Vilató and his wife Germaine Lascaux. Jacqueline is wearing a dress with printed motifs of a Pablo Picasso work. La Californie, Cannes 1956.

Pablo Picasso, with a cigarette hanging from his mouth, leans over a cluttered dining table to cut a slice of melon for his nephew, Javier Vilató. The intimate luncheon at Picasso’s villa La Californie in Cannes, 1956, also includes Javier's wife, Germaine Lascaux (partially visible), and Picasso's wife, Jacqueline. Wearing a dress printed with one of the artist's own motifs, Jacqueline holds a cigarette to her lips. The sunlit, art-filled room, with its collection of sculptures and paintings, serves as both a home and a studio.
