[Antibes] n.d. [1946], 23.9 x 17.7cm, one leaf.

Exceptional original photograph of Pablo Picasso by Michel Sima. The artist is holding and owl in front of his painting “Nature morte à la chouette et aux trois oursins” now in the Picasso Museum in Antibes.

Contemporary silver print. Pencil inscription on the back.

The photographer had entrusted Picasso with a wounded owl. Named Ubu, after Alfred Jarry's literary masterpiece, the bird kept the artist company in his atelier in Antibes and served as a model in many of his paintings, including the one that features in the background of this photograph.

Provenance: Paul Destribats collection.
