Edouard Pignon, Hélène Parmelin, Jacqueline and Pablo Picasso viewing photos by Edward Quinn, which the latter brought as a gift. La Californie, Cannes 1959.

In his art-filled studio at La Californie, Cannes, a shirtless and contemplative Pablo Picasso examines photographs brought as a gift by Edward Quinn in 1959. He is joined by his wife Jacqueline, seated as she holds a print for inspection, and their friends, the artist Edouard Pignon and writer Hélène Parmelin. Pignon leans forward intently in a patterned shirt, while Parmelin, wearing a leopard-print dress and holding a cigarette, looks on. Behind Picasso looms a large, stylized sculptural head, part of the creative clutter of the dramatically lit room.
