A studio at La Californie, Cannes 1960.

The cluttered studio at the Villa La Californie in Cannes, pictured in 1960. Within the ornate, high-ceilinged room, numerous works of art are seen in various stages of completion. A large tapestry with stylized, cubist figures hangs on the back wall, while framed and unframed canvases lean against each other below. The grand architecture, featuring intricate molding and tall arched windows that flood the space with light, provides a striking contrast to the modern art, an easel, and scattered materials that signal a dynamic, working environment.
