Louise Leiris, owner with Daniel-Henry Kahnweiler of the Leiris Gallery Paris. La Californie, Cannes 1959.

Louise Leiris, co-owner with Daniel-Henry Kahnweiler of the Galerie Leiris in Paris, is captured in a candid moment at La Californie, Pablo Picasso's Cannes studio, in 1959. Seen from behind, she reaches towards a large drawing of three abstract knights on horseback, dated '4.9.52.' and resting on an easel. The room is filled with the artist's work and possessions, including a seated figure in an ornate tunic and numerous stacked canvases, evoking the informal atmosphere of the creative space.
