Pablo Picasso and Piero Crommelynck. Signing "Beau gentilhomme espagnol et femme à barbe". Mas Notre-Dame-de-Vie, Mougins 1969.

At his home, Mas Notre-Dame-de-Vie in Mougins, Pablo Picasso and Piero Crommelynck are seated at a table in 1969. They are absorbed in signing the artwork "Beau gentilhomme espagnol et femme à barbe." Crommelynck, on the left, leans forward to study the large print, while the older Picasso holds the sheet open. Captured with a wide-angle lens that distorts the perspective, the intimate night scene reveals the artist's cluttered study, where a framed portrait of Picasso himself hangs on the wall between two arched windows.
