Pablo Picasso and Paloma Picasso, sitting on "Le chat". La Californie, Cannes 1960.

In his studio at the Villa La Californie, Cannes, 1960, Pablo Picasso sits shirtless in a wooden armchair, his hand raised to his chin as he observes his daughter, Paloma. She is perched on his sculpture 'Le chat', looking directly towards the camera with a slight smile. Wearing a light-coloured jacket over patterned bottoms, one of her feet is bare. The room around them, filled with canvases, papers, and artworks, creates an atmosphere of prolific creative activity.
