La Californie, Cannes 1959.

At Pablo Picasso's villa La Californie in Cannes, 1959, his studio is filled with artworks bathed in natural light. A prominent Cubist portrait of a woman hangs on the wall above a dark bronze bust. In the foreground, a collection of linocuts with wide white borders is propped on an antique wooden stool. Large canvases lean against furniture, while the herringbone-patterned floor and a cluttered sideboard contribute to the lived-in, creative atmosphere of the space.
