Edouard Pignon and Pablo Picasso. La Californie, Cannes 1959.

In the studio of his villa La Californie in Cannes, 1959, Pablo Picasso presents a large print to fellow artist Edouard Pignon. Shirtless and with a cigarette in hand, Picasso points to the work—a line drawing of a hatted figure beside a horse—as Pignon leans in closely to inspect it. The cluttered space is filled with stacked canvases, while an eclectic collection of masks and textiles adorns the wall behind them.
