Pablo Picasso working on two plasters of "Centaure". La Californie, Cannes 1956.
At his villa La Californie in Cannes in 1956, Pablo Picasso, wearing thick glasses and a striped shirt, leans intently over his work. His hands are positioned on one of the two brightly illuminated plaster figures of his sculpture "Centaure," which rests on a dark wooden table. The dramatic lighting isolates the artist and his creation, creating a stark contrast with the deep shadows of the studio, where other artworks can be seen in the background.
