Mas Notre-Dame-de-Vie, Mougins 1964.

A corner of the studio at Pablo Picasso’s home, Mas Notre-Dame-de-Vie in Mougins, 1964. Natural light illuminates a dense collection of art in a distinct Cubist style. On the tiled floor are several sculpted heads on stands, while a large painting of a fragmented female nude leans against the back wall. In the foreground, a slate is marked “5.1.63.” next to a white ceramic vase decorated with a figure and the year “63.”
