"Oeuf de pâques". La Californie, Cannes 1961.

Picasso's artwork "Oeuf de pâques," photographed at his villa La Californie in Cannes, 1961. The piece is composed of two stacked, oval shapes cut from white paper, each decorated with a central vertical stripe—one red, one blue. The upper oval features two reddish-brown drawings of a figure on horseback holding a green branch; similar drawings in yellow-green appear on the lower oval. The composition, finished with cut-out ribbon shapes, is propped against an ornate wooden chair beside an ivy plant.
