La Californie, Cannes 1959.

At the villa La Californie in Cannes, 1959, a large Cubist painting of a seated, angular figure hangs above a cluttered wooden commode. The curved-front chest is laden with an assortment of items: numerous bottles, a large glass demijohn, a can of Krylon Workable Fixatif, and a jumble of papers. Among the clutter is a small, dark sculpture and a white object resembling a mask. In the background, a doorway with arched windows and decorative molding hints at the elegant interior.
