Pablo Picasso with the goat Esmeralda at Christmas 1956. She was a Christmas present from Jacqueline. La Californie, Cannes 1956.

At his La Californie studio in Cannes, Pablo Picasso sits cross-legged on the floor, holding the young goat Esmeralda. A Christmas present from his partner Jacqueline in 1956, the goat rests in the artist's lap as he gazes intently at the camera. Dressed in a checkered shirt and distinctive slippers, Picasso is surrounded by the creative clutter of his workspace, which includes stacked plates, books, and various artworks. Side lighting casts a strong shadow of the pair onto the wooden floor.
