Close-up of the corner of the studio. Pablo Picasso has arranged pieces of antique ceramics in front of his portrait of a faune. Mas Notre-Dame-de-Vie, Mougins 1974. (Photographed after Pablo Picasso’s death.)

In a sunlit corner of his studio at Mas Notre-Dame-de-Vie, Mougins, an arrangement left by Pablo Picasso is photographed after his death in 1974. The artist’s portrait of a faun, displayed in a fabric-lined box, sits behind a collection of antique ceramic fragments showing painted figures. Strong light casts dramatic shadows across the wooden floor, illuminating a tall terracotta vase, a crescent-shaped object, and a partial view of another painting.
