Pablo Picasso with his parrot. Background: Reproduction in tapestry of "Les Demoiselles d'Avignon". La Californie, Cannes1960.

In his Cannes villa, La Californie, 1960, a shirtless Pablo Picasso gazes directly at the camera. A parrot is perched calmly on his outstretched left hand. Behind him, amid the creative clutter of his studio, hangs a large tapestry reproduction of his seminal painting, "Les Demoiselles d'Avignon".
