A corner in La Californie, Cannes 1961.

A cluttered corner in the studio at La Californie, Cannes, in 1961, is densely packed with sculptures and drawings. In the foreground, a large pad of paper displays abstract, biomorphic lines, with a print of a stylized face dated "16.3.61" clipped below. A large, painted cubist head on a tripod stands near ornate ceramics, including a dark, owl-like vase. In the background, another owl, either taxidermy or sculpture, perches atop a cast-iron radiator.
