Pablo Picasso wearing a hat and holding a revolver & holster given to him by Gary Cooper - Cannes, 1958
We tend to think of Picasso as existing on another plane of existence. A place where the bodies shift and the colors are unnatural yet comforting, he is never apart from his ability to create. However that’s not the case at all. Picasso loved to entertain guests and had friends from all walks of life.
From the art world he plucked Gertrude Stein, the sculptor Julio González, and poet André Salmon - all of whom called Paris home at one time or another. Picasso was also close with actor Gary Cooper and his daughter.
In the 1950s the men were close enough that Picasso entertained Cooper and his family at his ceramics workshop in Vallauris.
