Pablo Picasso with the goat Esmeralda at Christmas 1956. She was a Christmas present from Jacqueline. La Californie, Cannes 1956.
In his studio at the Villa La Californie, Pablo Picasso stands with Esmeralda, a young goat given to him by Jacqueline Roque as a Christmas present in 1956. The artist, dressed in a plaid shirt and dark jacket, looks down at the animal with a gentle expression, a lit cigarette held between his fingers. He cups the goat’s neck with one hand while holding her simple rope leash in the other. The cluttered room features a large, decorated vase on a low table and canvases leaned against a wall near a grand, arched doorway. Cannes, 1956.
