La Californie, Cannes 1959.

Inside Pablo Picasso's studio at his villa La Californie, Cannes, 1959, three modernist artworks are displayed informally. At the center, a piece with abstract white-line figures on a dark background stands next to a graphic print of a stylized rider on a horse. A third square canvas, also depicting white-line figures, rests on the worn, wooden floor. The background is filled with the accoutrements of a well-used creative space, including a mantelpiece laden with sculptures and tools, all captured in soft, ambient light.
