Pablo Picasso with his portrait photo by Quinn (Pic59191_Pablo Picasso_110D_009). La Californie, Cannes 1961.

In Pablo Picasso’s studio at his villa La Californie in Cannes, 1961, a large photographic portrait of the artist by Quinn leans against a stack of canvases. The creatively cluttered space is a jumble of finished works and sources of inspiration: an ancient amphora rests on a stand, while a mandolin hangs near a poster for 'APOLLINAIRE.' Primitivist sculpted heads, an acoustic guitar, and various drawings are arranged on and against the ornate panelled walls and parquet floor, revealing a deeply personal artistic environment.
