Pablo Picasso with Claude Picasso dressed up as a clown. With goat Esmeralda. La Californie, Cannes 1956.

Pablo Picasso stands in the studio of his Cannes villa, La Californie, in 1956. Dressed in a plaid shirt, he regards the camera as his goat, Esmeralda, stands calmly beside him. On the floor to the right, his son Claude, in a clown costume complete with a ruffled scarf and flat-topped hat, holds the goat's leash and looks up at his father. The room, filled with stacked canvases and pottery, blends the creative clutter of a workspace with the elements of a grand residence.
