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 their art-filled home, Mas Notre-Dame-de-Vie in Mougins, Pablo Picasso and his wife Jacqueline host guests in 1970. Picasso, in a red sweater, and Jacqueline, in a rocking chair, are seen in conversation with architect William Hartmann, who persuaded the artist to create the monumental "Tête" sculpture for Chicago's Daley Plaza. A fisheye lens captures the intimate gathering around a circular table, surrounded by a creative clutter of canvases, books, and paintings under an arched ceiling.
