Mas Notre-Dame-de-Vie, Mougins 1967.
Two colorful crayon portraits are clipped to a wooden easel in Pablo Picasso's studio at Mas Notre-Dame-de-Vie, Mougins, in 1967. Dated March and April of that year, the expressive drawings depict stylized, mustachioed male faces reminiscent of 17th-century cavaliers. While one is a vibrant, cohesive composition with a ruffled collar, the other presents a more fragmented, Cubist-style face. The soft-focus background of stacked canvases confirms the setting of the artist's working space.
