Mas Notre-Dame-de-Vie, Mougins 1974. (Photographed after Pablo Picasso’s death.)

At Mas Notre-Dame-de-Vie in Mougins, Pablo Picasso’s paint palette—a piece of warped cardboard covered in thick, dried daubs of paint—hangs on a textured wall. Below it, a shelf holds a collection of his small, stylized sculptures depicting faces in a cubist style with bold, dark outlines. The photograph was taken in 1974, the year after the artist’s death.
