Picasso with color crayon drawings made Sep. 27 1961. for cover of Edward Quinn's book "Picasso at work". Notre-Dame-de-Vie, Mougins 1961. (date of the photo).

In his studio at Notre-Dame-de-Vie, Mougins, Pablo Picasso confronts the camera with an intense, wide-eyed gaze in 1961. Dressed in a work shirt, he holds a drawing tool. Beside him, an ornate, lyre-shaped easel displays two whimsical crayon drawings of faces, which the artist created on September 27, 1961, for the cover of Edward Quinn's book, "Picasso at work." A table cluttered with brushes and jars and the strong shadow of the easel on the wall complete this intimate view of the creative process.
