A studio at La Californie, Cannes 1960.

A totem-like wooden sculpture, composed of geometric shapes in black, turquoise, and white, stands in a cluttered artist’s studio at the villa La Californie in Cannes, 1960. Bathed in warm light, the space is filled with artworks propped against walls and furniture, including large, unframed cubist-style canvases, a long painting of colorful dancing figures, and a somber family portrait. Sunlight streams in from the right, illuminating the room and casting long shadows across the wooden floor.
