A month after their 1961 wedding, Pablo Picasso and Jacqueline Roque share a quiet moment during Easter at their Villa La Californie in Cannes. Relaxing in a cushioned armchair, Picasso cradles his dog, Ma Jolie. Jacqueline, seated beside him, wears a blouse made from a textile designed by her husband. Their high-ceilinged studio, with its classical moldings, serves as a backdrop for a collection of modern paintings, sculptures, and a stringed instrument, creating an atmosphere of creative domesticity in this first series of photographs by Edward Quinn of the newly married couple.
