Pablo Picasso and André Weill, publisher of some deluxe editions of Pablo Picasso's work, Michel Leiris, his wife Louise Leiris, owner with Daniel-Henry Kahnweiler of the Leiris Gallery Paris, partly hidden Pierre Baudouin and an unknown person (printer?). La Californie, Cannes 1959.

In his studio at the villa La Californie in Cannes, 1959, Pablo Picasso stands at the center of a group, gesturing towards a large sketchbook. His publisher, André Weill, smiles as he holds the book open. Writer Michel Leiris leans in to examine the drawings, observed by his wife, gallery owner Louise Leiris. Behind them, Pierre Baudouin is partly visible over Leiris’s shoulder, alongside an unidentified man, possibly a printer. The gathering captures a candid moment of creative review among the artist and his close associates.
