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, Pablo Picasso examines a cubist-style drawing before signing it in 1959. Dressed in a striped shirt and patterned trousers, the artist is bent over the artwork, which rests on a bentwood rocking chair. Observing the moment are publisher André Weill, standing behind Picasso; writer Michel Leiris, at far left; and Jacqueline, in a headscarf. The room's blend of ornate moldings and modern furniture provides the backdrop for this intimate presentation.
