26.2.1955, funeral of Olga Pablo Picasso, born Khokhlova, Pablo Picasso’s first wife. With 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, mourners gather for the funeral of Olga Khokhlova, Pablo Picasso’s first wife. Among them are her son, Paulo Picasso, and friends Georges and Suzanne Ramié, watching as a bishop blesses the coffin. Pablo Picasso himself was notably absent from the ceremony on February 26, 1955. The stark shadows cast by the Riviera sun over the graveside scene contribute to the poignant atmosphere.
