Pablo Picasso explaining Lucie Weill bullfight painting by Claude Picasso: POUR MON PAPA CHERIE CLAUDE. La Californie, Cannes 1957.

In the art-filled rooms of his villa La Californie in Cannes, Pablo Picasso, wearing bold plaid trousers, animatedly presents a painting to a smiling Lucie Weill. The piece is a child-like depiction of a bullfight, created by his son, Claude, and inscribed: "POUR MON PAPA CHERIE CLAUDE." The intimate moment is captured in 1957, surrounded by the creative disarray of the studio, with canvases, masks, and sketches covering the walls.
