26.2.1955, funeral of Olga Pablo Picasso, born Khokhlova, Pablo Picasso’s first wife. With her son Paulo Picasso, Georges and Suzanne Ramié (but not Pablo Picasso). Cimetière le Grand Jas. Cannes 1955.
On 26 February 1955, a sunlit funeral service is held for Olga Khokhlova, Pablo Picasso's first wife, at the Cimetière le Grand Jas in Cannes. A religious figure in a mitre presides over the ceremony as mourners, including her son Paulo Picasso and friends Georges and Suzanne Ramié, gather around the polished coffin. Pablo Picasso was not in attendance. The somber scene, with its dark-suited figures and long shadows, contrasts sharply with the bright light and the cemetery's background of stone tombs and a large palm tree.
