Mas Notre-Dame-de-Vie near Mougins where Pablo Picasso lived since 1961. The house was once owned by the Plunket family who gave the painter an Afghan hound called Kaboul as a moving-in present. When Pablo Picasso had filled the available rooms with his paintings and drawings, he had the terrace (left) covered to give him space for two more large studios. His bedroom was on the top floor, the living rooms and studio on the ground floor. Mougins 1962.
Mas Notre-Dame-de-Vie near Mougins, Pablo Picasso's home from 1961. This 1962 photograph captures the imposing stone building from a low angle, its walls entirely covered in a dense network of leafless vines. The ground floor, with its series of large arched openings, contained the artist's studio and living rooms. When he required more space, Picasso had the terrace on the left, under a wooden pergola, enclosed to create two additional large studios, while his bedroom occupied the top floor.
