"La Californie", seen from the garden. This side of the house faced south, and on the top floor where Pablo Picasso worked and fed the pigeons, he could see the Mediterranean. Cannes 1961. Today: Pavillon de Flore, 22 Avenue de Coste Belle, Cannes.

The south-facing façade of "La Californie," Pablo Picasso’s villa in Cannes, is seen from the garden in 1961. Framed by palm fronds, the ornate Belle Époque architecture features decorative carvings and an intricate wrought-iron balcony. In the foreground, an abstract sculpture on a concrete plinth offers a modern contrast. The recessed balcony on the top floor belonged to Picasso's studio, from which he could see the Mediterranean.
