In the sunlit disarray of his studio at the villa La Californie, Pablo Picasso discusses his sculpture "Centaure" with French painter and writer André Verdet. Seated at a cluttered table, Picasso engages with Verdet, who leans forward intently from the opposite side. Between them rests a prominent white plaster of the work. In the background, amidst stacked papers and paintings, Jean Ramié observes the exchange. Cannes, 1956.
