A studio at La Californie, Cannes 1960.

The artist’s studio at the villa La Californie in Cannes, 1960, is a cluttered, light-filled space conveying prolific creation. High ceilings and ornate mouldings frame a room brimming with art and supplies. A large, unframed canvas with cubist-style figures hangs on the back wall, while numerous smaller paintings lean below. The foreground is a landscape of creative process: a chair piled with rolled drawings, a desk covered with prints, and an easel-like structure holding a wooden instrument, all bathed in soft light from an arched window.
