La Californie, Cannes 1959.

The cluttered studio at Villa La Californie in Cannes, 1959. On the left, a large, stylized family portrait rests on an easel. In the center, a brightly colored print with silhouetted dancers is displayed, while a large cubist painting in shades of green, red, and ochre stands to the right. On the wooden floor, a small painted tile and a ceramic bowl sit amidst the creative disarray of the busy, working space.
