Paloma Picasso and Catherine Hutin with a book on the armchair. La Californie, Cannes 1959.

Paloma Picasso and Catherine Hutin lean over a dark upholstered armchair, engrossed in an open book propped on its seat. The visible page features a stylized portrait painting of a young girl. In the background of the lived-in space, a mandolin hangs on a paneled wall. This quiet, candid moment of shared interest was captured at the Villa La Californie in Cannes in 1959.
