During the filming of the documentary "Le mystère Picasso" at the Studios de la Victorine in Nice, 1955. Seen from behind, a shirtless Pablo Picasso paints a large modernist nude. Director Henri-Georges Clouzot observes from a chair in the foreground, while a large film camera records the artist’s process. To Picasso’s left is a table with his palette; a cardboard box for "LUX" soap flakes rests on the concrete floor.
