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

Pablo Picasso’s studio at Mas Notre-Dame-de-Vie in Mougins, photographed in 1974 following the artist’s death. The high-ceilinged room is a testament to prolific creation: a desk is buried under supplies, easels hold works in progress, and paint-splattered floors are strewn with crates and canvases. A long sideboard displays an eclectic mix of sculptures and pottery, while finished artworks, including a large Cubist-style portrait, lean against the walls, preserving the dynamic atmosphere of the space.
