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 ornate, south-facing facade of La Californie, Pablo Picasso’s villa in Cannes, photographed in 1961. A low-angle view from the garden highlights the building’s elaborate Art Nouveau style, from the wide, curved stone staircase to the flowing carvings framing the windows and wrought-iron balconies. A single glass pane in the arched entryway is broken. On the top floor is the recessed loggia where Picasso worked, with views extending to the Mediterranean Sea.
