Château de Vauvenargues 1960.

At the Château de Vauvenargues in 1960, a large modernist painting stands propped in a studio. Dated "20.8.6." in its upper left corner, the work depicts three stylized figures against a stark black background: a child-like form, a seated cubist figure in grey and yellow, and a geometric profile. Behind the canvas, the beige studio wall is adorned with white bas-relief sculptures of classical figures. The edge of another dark painting and a wooden canvas stretcher are also visible, all captured in a warm, grainy color photograph.
