Pablo Picasso at La Californie, Cannes 1959.

Pablo Picasso at his villa La Californie in Cannes, 1959. Captured from an over-the-shoulder perspective, the artist intently observes several recent works propped up for viewing. In the foreground is a matted piece, likely a linocut, with a complex Cubist composition. Behind it, a black-ink line drawing shows two fluidly rendered female figures. The background reveals the active environment of his studio, with stacked canvases, ornate molding, and a small sculptural mask hanging on the wall.
