Pablo Picasso, David Douglas Duncan and Paloma Picasso. On the table a pile of English newspapers reporting on his London exhibition. La Californie, Cannes 1960.
In his studio at the Villa La Californie, a shirtless Pablo Picasso stands pensively, his hand to his mouth. Photographer David Douglas Duncan leans forward, speaking and gesturing, while at a cluttered desk sits Picasso’s daughter, Paloma. The room is in a state of creative disarray, filled with modernist paintings, decorated ceramic plates, and art supplies. On the table lies a pile of English newspapers reporting on the artist’s recent London exhibition. Cannes, 1960.
