Glass cabinet (vitrine) in the old "salle à manger" at Mas Notre-Dame-de-Vie, the same glass cabinet that was "Le musée" of the studio des Grands-Augustins in Paris, see photo Brassaï, 25 Oct 1943. Mas Notre-Dame-de-Vie, Mougins 1974. (Photographed after Pablo Picasso’s death.)

In the former dining room of Pablo Picasso’s Mas Notre-Dame-de-Vie, photographed in Mougins in 1974 after his death, a multitude of bronze sculptures are scattered across the floor. Among the artworks stands the glass cabinet that once served as “Le musée” in his Paris studio on rue des Grands-Augustins. A blackboard bearing a chalk drawing of a ram’s head and a large, tied-up cardboard box suggest an artist’s space in a state of transition.
