The Château de Vauvenargues, Pablo Picasso’s residence from 1959 to 1962, photographed in 1960. The stately 16th- and 18th-century building is nestled in a wooded hillside at the foot of Mont Sainte-Victoire. Its stone facade, punctuated by round towers and windows with open shutters, is set against a rugged mountain backdrop. In the foreground, the bare, white branches of deciduous trees create a textural contrast with the dense foliage, enhancing the sense of timeless elegance in the remote Provençal landscape.
