Pablo Picasso at La Californie, Cannes 1959.
Pablo Picasso is captured in a moment of quiet concentration in his studio at the Villa La Californie, Cannes, in 1959. Dressed in a striped shirt, he stands in profile, surrounded by his creations. Before him, an easel displays an abstract linocut and a painting of a goat's head, while a large Cubist line drawing of a seated woman is visible in the background. The grand studio, with its high ceilings and paint-splattered wooden floor, is filled with canvases and sculptures, testifying to the room's function as a vibrant, working space.
