Pablo Picasso and Jacqueline viewing a book about Bernard Palissy, French potter of the 16th century. La Californie, Cannes 1957.

At his villa La Californie in Cannes, Pablo Picasso holds up a page from a book about the 16th-century French potter Bernard Palissy for Jacqueline to see. He looks down intently at the intricate drawing while Jacqueline, chin resting in her hands, gazes at the image. The intimate 1957 scene is surrounded by personal objects and other art, including a ceramic owl plate, a kite-shaped memento from 1956, and a lute hanging on the wall.
