Pablo Picasso at La Californie, Cannes 1959. - Photo by Edward Quinn

Pablo Picasso at La Californie, Cannes 1959.

Pablo Picasso stands shirtless in his studio at the Villa La Californie, Cannes, in 1959. Looking intently at the camera, he holds a lit cigarette, his right hand in his pocket. He is surrounded by his creations: a large, unfinished Cubist portrait rests on an easel behind him, while another in the foreground displays prints of an abstract composition and a bullfighting scene. Ornate wall paneling and a decorated ceramic plate on the floor reveal a space that is simultaneously a grand room and an active artist's workshop.
