Pablo Picasso, Jacqueline, not yet identified visitor. With William Hartmann, architect who persuaded Pablo Picasso to create "Tête", the Chicago Civic Center Work (Chicago Pablo Picasso) at Chicago's Daley Plaza. Mas Notre-Dame-de-Vie, Mougins 1970.

At Mas Notre-Dame-de-Vie in Mougins, 1970, Pablo Picasso, wearing a red shirt and blue sweater vest, is in conversation with architect William Hartmann. It was Hartmann who successfully persuaded the artist to create the monumental "Tête" sculpture for Chicago's Daley Plaza. To the right, Jacqueline Picasso observes from a wooden rocking chair in the cluttered, art-filled room. The wide-angle photograph also captures a partially visible, unidentified visitor seated in the foreground, amidst stacks of books and propped-up canvases.
