Picasso and Hjalmar Boyesen. He collaborated with Picasso during 1956-1958, and executed some mosaics for him. La Californie 1956.

In a sunlit doorway at his Villa La Californie in 1956, Pablo Picasso smiles warmly beside Hjalmar Boyesen. The artist, dressed in a vibrant pinkish-red shirt and patterned plaid trousers, holds a cigarette. Boyesen, who collaborated with Picasso and executed mosaics for him from 1956 to 1958, wears a grey sweater and round glasses. They jointly present a large, irregularly shaped mosaic featuring a childlike sun and an abstract, fish-like figure on a white background.
