Studio de la sculpture. Ground floor, Mas Notre-Dame-de-Vie, Mougins 1974. (photographed after Pablo Picasso's death)

Photographed in 1974 after Pablo Picasso's death, the sculpture studio on the ground floor of his Mas Notre-Dame-de-Vie in Mougins is filled with his creations. A long wooden table is laden with an eclectic collection of ceramics, including a stylized bull's head, a whimsical striped creature with a humanoid torso, and an ornate vase with large, curling handles. Other pieces, such as ceramic owls, rest on the table and the tiled floor beneath, within the studio's stone-walled interior.
