Pablo Picasso and Henri-Georges Clouzot. "Le mystère Picasso", Nice, Studios de la Victorine 1955.

Director Henri-Georges Clouzot confers with Pablo Picasso during the 1955 filming of "Le mystère Picasso" at the Studios de la Victorine in Nice. A shirtless Picasso, cigarette in hand, fixes an intense gaze on Clouzot, who leans over a large bellows camera. Between them, pinned to an easel, is a black ink line drawing of abstract figures, part of the creative process being documented for the film.
