One day Quinn asked Pablo Picasso if he could photograph the top floor studios. He agreed and prcoeeded to take out, one by one, old and new paintings from his collection. This work Pablo Picasso remembered Quinn photographed him painting in 1955 (see 550853 - 550929). Mas Notre-Dame-de-Vie, Mougins 1967. (Digitized from Vintage Print, original negative missing)
In his studio at Mas Notre-Dame-de-Vie, Mougins, Pablo Picasso stands confidently with his hands on his hips, looking directly at the camera in 1967. He wears a distinctive short-sleeved shirt with a bold geometric pattern. At the photographer's request, Picasso had begun pulling out works from his collection. Here he presents a large, abstract canvas depicting a stylized reclining nude, a painting he recalled Edward Quinn had photographed him creating twelve years earlier. The studio’s rustic stone wall and other stacked canvases are visible in the background.
