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

In his studio at the villa La Californie in Cannes, Pablo Picasso works on two plaster sculptures of his "Centaure" in 1956. Seen in profile, the artist leans over a wooden table, his hands carefully shaping one of the stylized figures. Strong sunlight streams through a shuttered window, casting dramatic shadows and highlighting the textures of the sculptures and Picasso's hands. In the background, a cubist painting hangs on the wall, underscoring the atmosphere of quiet, creative concentration.
