Pablo Picasso with the goat Esmeralda at Christmas 1956. She was a Christmas present from Jacqueline. La Californie, Cannes 1956.
Pablo Picasso shares an intimate moment with Esmeralda, a goat given to him by his wife Jacqueline as a Christmas present in 1956. Seated on the wooden floor of his studio at La Californie in Cannes, the artist, dressed in a checkered shirt, looks down with a gentle, contemplative expression at the animal nestled in his lap. The well-lit room is filled with artistic elements, including a large ceramic vase with fish motifs and canvases leaning against a wall.
