Pablo Picasso viewing a book on himself. Ripolin can on a table by Joseph-Marius Tiola in the background. La Californie, Cannes 1961.

At his villa La Californie in Cannes, 1961, a shirtless Pablo Picasso is deeply absorbed in a book about himself. Seated in an armchair, glasses on and a cigarette dangling from his lips, he is surrounded by the creative disarray of his studio. The room is a profusion of art and papers, with decorated ceramic plates and drawings visible amidst the clutter. In the background, a Ripolin can rests on a table designed by Joseph-Marius Tiola.
