Pablo Picasso and Theodor "Teto" Ahrenberg, Swedish collector. La Californie, 25.10.1959.

In the creative chaos of his studio at La Californie, Pablo Picasso playfully adjusts a houndstooth cap on October 25, 1959. To his right, the Swedish collector Theodor "Teto" Ahrenberg smiles warmly, holding a white hard hat and a sheet of paper. The room is filled with an eclectic mix of art and objects—a classical torso, stacked canvases, and tribal masks—framing this lighthearted interaction between the two men.
