The Entrance Of La Californie With Sculptures. Today: Pavillon De Flore, 22 Avenue De Coste Belle. Cannes 1955.

In Cannes, 1955, the entrance to the villa La Californie features an ornate, arched doorway with baroque-style carvings. Flanking the curved stone steps are two contrasting abstract metal sculptures: a stout, blocky form on the left and a tall, slender figure holding a stringed instrument on the right. Their modern style creates a striking juxtaposition with the classical facade of the building, known today as the Pavillon De Flore.
