Pablo Picasso at La Californie, Cannes 1961.

In his studio at the Villa La Californie in Cannes, 1961, a bare-chested Pablo Picasso stares intently at the camera. Captured mid-motion, he pulls off a dark shirt, holding it in his right hand. Dressed only in light-colored shorts, he is surrounded by the creative disarray of his workspace: drawings, cut-out paper masks, a patterned sculpture, and an easel. Bright light streams from a large, arched window, illuminating the artist in this intimate and candid moment.
