Pablo Picasso discussing with the expert Pierre Baudouin the project for a tapestry designed by him. Luis Miguel Dominguin and at right Paulo Picasso. La Californie, Cannes 1959.

At his villa La Californie in Cannes in 1959, Pablo Picasso discusses a tapestry he has designed. The artist, in patterned trousers, hunches forward to examine the work as expert Pierre Baudouin unfurls it on the paved terrace. Looking on are Luis Miguel Dominguin (left) and Picasso’s son, Paulo (right). The bright sun casts long shadows as the men inspect the abstract design, its prominent signature visible in the upper corner.
