Picasso and Claude at Christmas with Esmeralda, the goat he received from Jacqueline. Sculptures in the garden of La Californie, Cannes 1956.
In the garden of his villa La Californie in Cannes, Pablo Picasso and his son Claude are pictured with Esmeralda, a goat Picasso received from Jacqueline for Christmas in 1956. The artist, wearing a plaid shirt, stands between his famous bronze sculpture, "The Goat," and the live animal, resting a hand on the artwork while looking down at Esmeralda. Young Claude, in glasses, stands close by, intently focused on the textured, abstract form of the sculpture. The lush foliage provides a natural backdrop for this quiet moment where family, nature, and art converge.
