In 1956, on the occasion of his 75th birthday on 25.10., Pablo Picasso invited some friends. His art dealer friend, Daniel-Henry Kahnweiler, Gustavo Gili, his Spanish publisher and Jacqueline. La Californie, Cannes 1956.

At his villa La Californie in Cannes, Pablo Picasso celebrates his 75th birthday with friends on 25 October 1956. Standing in his art-filled studio, Picasso, wearing his iconic striped shirt, holds a hand to his chin. At the center of the gathering is his partner, Jacqueline, alongside his art dealer, Daniel-Henry Kahnweiler, who smiles warmly. His Spanish publisher, Gustavo Gili, observes from beside a large window. A prominent Cubist painting hangs on the wall behind them, surrounded by sculptures and personal effects.
