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

Sunlight streams through arched windows into Pablo Picasso’s ground-floor sculpture studio at Mas Notre-Dame-de-Vie in Mougins, photographed in 1974 after his death. The rustic, stone-walled space is filled with his work: a starkly modern, white geometric sculpture resembling a stylized chair is centrally placed, flanked by two tall, totemic figures. In the foreground, a heavily textured bronze head rests on a fluted base, while a classical plaster cast of a nude male stands in the background, creating a sense of a busy, creative workspace.
