Metamorphosis was key not only in Pablo Picasso's work but also in his private life. He had a fantastic range of hats, caps, and other headgear from all over the world and liked to use them whenever he met a visitor for the first time. Mas Notre-Dame-de-Vie, Mougins 30.12.1969.
Pablo Picasso looks directly into the camera, his wide-eyed, intense expression magnified by thick-rimmed glasses. Metamorphosis was key to the artist, and he enjoyed greeting first-time visitors wearing one of the many hats from his vast collection. Here he sports a textured karakul cap with a cardigan and patterned neckerchief. This photograph was taken at his home, Mas Notre-Dame-de-Vie in Mougins, on 30 December 1969.
