Pablo Picasso and Jacqueline viewing a book about Bernard Palissy, French potter of the 16th century. La Californie, Cannes 1957.

In their art-filled studio at the Villa La Californie, Pablo Picasso stands bent at the waist to peer intently at a book about the 16th-century French potter Bernard Palissy. Seated beside him, his wife Jacqueline leans forward, her finger indicating an ornate illustration on the page. Dressed in a dark polo shirt and plaid trousers, with his hands tucked in his pockets, Picasso shares a moment of intense focus with Jacqueline. Cannes, 1957.
