With the book Pierre Reverdy, Le chant des Morts: Pablo Picasso, Paulo Picasso, the printer of the book, Pierre Baudouin. La Californie, Cannes 1959.

In his studio at La Californie, Cannes, Pablo Picasso gestures while in conversation with his son, Paulo, and the printer Pierre Baudouin in 1959. Paulo Picasso stands with arms crossed, a cigarette in his mouth, while the group examines an open copy of *Le chant des Morts*. The book, written by Pierre Reverdy, lies on a table in the foreground, its pages displaying the bold, abstract forms of Picasso's illustrations. Framed artworks and a stringed instrument are visible in the background.
