In the grand, high-ceilinged studio of his villa La Californie in Cannes, Pablo Picasso is bent in concentration over his work "Oeuf de pâques" in 1961. Using Caran d'ache wax oil pastels, the artist works amidst a creative chaos of furniture and art supplies. The room’s ornate classical paneling is juxtaposed with modern paintings and scattered papers. In the foreground, a low table by Joseph-Marius Tiola holds a collection of ceramics, surrounded by an eclectic mix of chairs and artworks.
