La Californie, Cannes 1959.

At Villa La Californie in Cannes, 1959, an intimate arrangement of artworks is captured in a dimly lit room. On a dark surface, a print of a Cubist-style face in golden-ochre is displayed beside another featuring stylized white figures, resembling centaurs, against a blue and green landscape. Between them, a light-colored piece of plywood, possibly a printing block, rests against two mottled, book-like objects. The background reveals a dark, paneled wooden cabinet and a multi-paned window with a view of greenery outside.
