Michele Sapone, Italian tailor, fits a new garment he has made for Pablo Picasso. In return Pablo Picasso gives him drawings. La Californie, Cannes 1956.

In his studio at the Villa La Californie, Cannes, Pablo Picasso stands beside his Italian tailor, Michele Sapone. The artist, dressed in a loose-fitting striped shirt, looks toward the camera while Sapone, in a double-breasted suit, gazes warmly at him during a fitting in 1956. In return for new garments, Picasso would give his tailor drawings. The informal moment is captured in a high-ceilinged room filled with canvases, its walls featuring ornate, classical-style paneling.
