Pablo Picasso, shirtless and viewed from behind, works on a large canvas as director Henri-Georges Clouzot observes. The scene is from the 1955 filming of the documentary "Le mystère Picasso" at the Studios de la Victorine in Nice. The painting, a stylized reclining nude rendered with bold, sweeping lines, bears the date "24.8.55" in its upper corner. A large film camera in the foreground is positioned to capture the intimate moment of creation.
