In his studio at Villa La Californie, Cannes, Pablo Picasso stands in a paint-splattered shirt, attentively examining two plaster “Centaure” sculptures. Seated beside him, French painter and writer André Verdet gestures as he speaks, a copy of “Le Monde” resting on his lap. In the background, Picasso’s secretary Jaime Sabartés is visible in a distinctive rocking chair. The scene from 1956 is filled with canvases, papers, and the natural light from large windows.
