Picasso with the goat Esmeralda at Christmas 1956. She was a Christmas present from Jacqueline. La Californie, Cannes 1956.

In the cluttered studio of his Villa La Californie, Pablo Picasso interacts with his goat, Esmeralda, a Christmas present from Jacqueline. The artist, wearing a plaid shirt, leans forward and points toward something on the floor, directing the small animal’s attention. Behind them, a worktable laden with paint cans, jars, and brushes is illuminated by soft natural light from a large window. Cannes, Christmas 1956.
