Pablo Picasso at Château de Vauvenargues 1960.

In his spacious studio at the Château de Vauvenargues, 1960, Pablo Picasso is seen from behind, seated in a dark wooden chair. He gestures with his right hand toward a group of large cubist canvases, their modernity a stark contrast to the room's classical decor, which includes ornate plasterwork and a framed relief portrait. The scene, set upon a floor of repeating hexagonal tiles, is illuminated by a bare bulb and a circular studio lamp on a stand.
