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

In the creative clutter of his studio at La Californie, Cannes, a shirtless Pablo Picasso introduces his son Claude to a new pet parrot in 1960. While the bird perches on a young girl’s shoulder, Claude, in a striped shirt, examines a white, multi-tiered bird stand. The intimate, black and white photograph captures the informal scene, with artworks including a Cubist painting and a sculpted head visible in the background.
