Pablo Picasso signing. The writer Michel Leiris and André Weill, publisher of some deluxe editions of Pablo Picasso's work, and Jacqueline. La Californie, Cannes 1959.

At his villa La Californie in Cannes, 1959, Pablo Picasso bends to inspect a large, cubist-style drawing propped on a wooden rocking chair. Dressed in a striped shirt and checkered trousers, the artist is observed by his wife, Jacqueline, the writer Michel Leiris, and publisher André Weill. Weill, who published some of Picasso's deluxe editions, stands behind the artist with one hand resting on the back of the chair as he looks down at the work.
