Pablo Picasso with oceanologist Jacques-Yves Cousteau and his wife Simone Cousteau, a famous diver. La Californie, Cannes 1958.

At his villa La Californie in Cannes, Pablo Picasso stands with an intense gaze and arms firmly crossed. He is joined by oceanologist Jacques-Yves Cousteau, who appears to be mid-conversation, and his wife, the famous diver Simone Cousteau. She is seen in the foreground, dressed in a leopard-print coat and pearl necklace, her hands holding a pair of eyeglasses. The group is captured in the artist's studio, surrounded by paintings on the wall and an easel, in 1958.
