Picasso with the goat Esmeralda at Christmas 1956. She was a Christmas present from Jacqueline. La Californie, Cannes 1956.
At his villa La Californie in Cannes, Pablo Picasso is seated cross-legged on the floor, cradling the young goat Esmeralda. A Christmas present from Jacqueline in 1956, the goat rests calmly in his embrace. With his eyes closed and head bowed affectionately against the animal's, the artist appears serene. Dressed in a checkered flannel shirt and espadrilles, Picasso is surrounded by the creative clutter of his studio, including stacked papers, a potted plant, and piles of decorated ceramic plates.
