Pablo Picasso and French painter and writer André Verdet, examinig two plasters of "Centaure". Jaime Sabartés in the background. La Californie, Cannes 1956.

In his cluttered studio at La Californie, Cannes, Pablo Picasso stands with a cigarette as he and the French painter and writer André Verdet examine two white, stylized plaster "Centaure" sculptures. Verdet is seated beside him, a folded copy of "Le Monde" in his lap. In the background to the far left, Jaime Sabartés sits in a distinctive wheelchair. The 1956 photograph captures the creative chaos of the artist's environment, with tables piled high with papers, sketchbooks, and tools.
