La Californie, Cannes 1958.
Sunlight streams into the studio at La Californie, Pablo Picasso’s villa in Cannes, 1958, casting long shadows across the wooden floor. Scattered in the light are numerous hand-painted ceramic bowls featuring primitivist and abstract designs. A life-sized white sculpture of a nude female figure stands to the left, while the background is filled with stacked canvases and a large Cubist-style painting, creating a scene of prolific work in progress.
