An intimate luncheon unfolds at the combined dining and work table in Pablo Picasso's villa, La Californie, in Cannes, 1956. The artist, at left, leans forward, gesturing animatedly with a slice of melon. Listening intently are his nephew, Javier Vilató, and Vilató's wife, Germaine Lascaux. On the right, Jacqueline, wearing a dress with a printed Picasso motif, smiles at the artist. The informal meal takes place amidst sculptures and paintings, with a drawing visible on the table among plates and glasses, bathed in bright, natural light.
