Claude Picasso and Luis Dominguin try on paper hats for size. Inès Sassier with Lucia Dominguin. La Californie, Cannes 1959.

In the art-filled studio of La Californie, Inès Sassier holds the young Lucia Dominguin. Flanking them, Luis Dominguin and Claude Picasso try on tall, homemade paper hats. To the left, Luis looks downwards with a subdued expression; on the right, Claude adjusts his hat while holding a small, patterned ball. The room is crowded with canvases, sculptures, and musical instruments, all brightly lit from behind, casting long shadows across the floor. Cannes, 1959.
