Encouraged by his father, Claude Picasso observes his own attempt at a portrait of the artist. Pablo Picasso, seated on a shaggy rug, points to the drawing on a board, which depicts him with a round face, deep furrows, and a triangular nose. The young Claude stands pensively behind him, while a woman and a young girl also look on attentively. The intimate family scene unfolds on a patterned tile floor at their villa, La Galloise, in Vallauris. 16 April 1953.
