Luncheon at the dining and work table. Pablo Picasso, Jacqueline and Javier Vilató and his wife Germaine Lascaux. Jacqueline is wearing a dress with printed motifs of a Pablo Picasso work. La Californie, Cannes 1956.

An animated Pablo Picasso gestures during a luncheon at his villa, La Californie, in Cannes, 1956. He is joined at the cluttered dining and work table by his nephew, Javier Vilató, who listens intently, and Javier's wife, Germaine Lascaux. Across from Picasso, Jacqueline looks on with a slight smile, wearing a dress featuring a printed motif from one of his works. The informal gathering, surrounded by sculptures and paintings, captures a moment of relaxed conversation and camaraderie in the artist's studio-home.
