Pablo Picasso viewing a book on himself. Ripolin can in the background. With a Ripolin can. La Californie, Cannes 1961.

At his villa, La Californie, in Cannes, Pablo Picasso sits shirtless and engrossed in a large book about his own work in 1961. The cluttered studio space is filled with personal effects, artworks, and stacks of paper. Behind him, on a laden table, a glass bearing the name "RIPOLIN" is a subtle nod to the brand of industrial paint the artist famously favored.
