Pablo Picasso and Luis Miguel Dominguin. La Californie, Cannes 1959.
In his studio at the villa La Californie in Cannes, Pablo Picasso engages in conversation with the bullfighter Luis Miguel Dominguin in 1959. Picasso, seated on the right in a simple wooden chair, leans forward intently, his hands clasped. Dominguin, seen in profile, sits in a relaxed posture in a wooden armchair. Dominating the space between them is a large, dark sculptural bust of a woman’s head resting on a tall easel. The room, filled with other works of art, including a sculpture of a forearm and a primitive mask, has an atmosphere of informal, creative intimacy.
