26.2.1955, funeral of Olga Pablo Picasso, born Khokhlova, Pablo Picasso’s first wife. Behind the car her son Paulo Picasso, Georges and Suzanne Ramié (but not Pablo Picasso). Cimetière le Grand Jas. Cannes 1955.
At the Cimetière le Grand Jas in Cannes, a vintage black hearse proceeds up a sunlit road flanked by high stone walls. It is 26 February 1955, the funeral of Olga Khokhlova, Pablo Picasso’s first wife. Walking solemnly behind the vehicle are her son, Paulo Picasso, and friends Georges and Suzanne Ramié; Pablo Picasso himself did not attend. The bright, high-contrast light casts long, dark shadows along the path, underscoring the scene’s quiet solemnity as the procession moves toward an ornate mausoleum in the distance.
