Pablo Picasso on the occasion of the visit of Clive Bell. La Californie, Cannes 1958.

Pablo Picasso sits with an intense gaze in a dark wood and cane rocking chair, his arms crossed firmly over his chest. The photograph was taken in his cluttered studio at the Villa La Californie in Cannes, 1958, during a visit from art critic Clive Bell, whose leg is just visible at lower left. Surrounding the artist is the creative disarray of his workspace, with canvases leaning against the walls, papers piled on a low table, and a large birdcage resting on an easel.
