Pablo Picasso signing Rimbaud litho. With Henri Matarasso and his niece. La Californie, Cannes 1961.

In his cluttered studio at the Villa La Californie, Cannes, Pablo Picasso leans forward to sign a Rimbaud lithograph in 1961. The portfolio is held open by the niece of publisher Henri Matarasso, who looks toward the camera. Standing behind her, Matarasso smiles down at the artist while holding up another print from the series. The room is filled with stacked artworks and tacked-up drawings, while Picasso’s dachshund rests on the wooden floor in the foreground.
