Pablo Picasso comparing original on cardboard and litho "Le repos du faune". La Californie, Cannes 1961.

In his studio at the Villa La Californie in Cannes, 1961, a shirtless Pablo Picasso is captured in deep concentration. With a towel draped over his shoulder, he compares the original on cardboard with a lithograph of his work, "Le repos du faune," which are propped up beside him. The space is a creative clutter of other projects, including a mosaic in progress on the floor, tools, an "APOLLINAIRE" poster, and a guitar standing in the corner, offering an intimate glimpse into the artist's prolific environment.
