La Californie, Cannes 25.10.1959.

The studio at Villa La Californie in Cannes, photographed on October 25, 1959. The grand, high-ceilinged room is cluttered with artworks and easels. Among the pieces are a bull's head sculpture fashioned from a woven basket, a cubist line drawing of a seated figure, and several expressive portraits of women. A small, white owl figurine rests on a radiator, while a board propped on the floor is handwritten with a previous date, "dimanche 30.8.59."
