Pablo Picasso introduces Claude Picasso and Paloma Picasso to a new pet, a talking parrot, which is squatting on his arm. La Californie, Cannes 1960.

In the cluttered studio of his villa La Californie in Cannes, 1960, Pablo Picasso introduces his children, Claude and Paloma, to a new pet. Shirtless and in jeans, the artist gestures toward Claude as a talking parrot sits on his arm. Between them, Paloma looks on, holding a small sculpted object. The room is a scene of vibrant artistic life, filled with paintings leaning against walls, numerous sculptures and masks, and a Dalmatian resting on the floor in the foreground.
