Pablo Picasso working on two plasters of "Centaure". La Californie, Cannes 1956.

At his villa La Californie in Cannes, 1956, Pablo Picasso works on plaster sculptures of his “Centaure.” Wearing glasses and dark clothing, he leans over a wooden table to intently examine one of the stylized, abstract pieces. A warm light illuminates the artist and his work, casting the rest of the art-filled studio—cluttered with books, plants, and drawings—into deep shadow.
