Pablo Picasso, in a plaid shirt, observes a Christmas celebration at his Cannes villa, La Californie, in 1956. On the floor, his wife Jacqueline is joined by children Claude and Paloma Picasso and Catherine Hutin. Standing near the artist is the goat Esmeralda, a recent gift from Jacqueline. The festive scene unfolds before a decorated tree and an ornate mantelpiece displaying Picasso’s own ceramics and sculptures, merging the intimate family gathering with the creative atmosphere of his home studio.
