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

The sculpture studio on the ground floor of Mas Notre-Dame-de-Vie in Mougins, photographed in 1974 as it was left after Pablo Picasso’s death. A large, blocky sculpture with a rectangular white head and blue top dominates the scene. To its left stands a group of smaller, thinner figures on wooden bases, constructed from various materials and painted in different patterns. Scraps scattered across the floor suggest a creative process interrupted, preserved in time.
