Jean Renoir in the gardens of "Les Collettes" (today Musée Renoir) directing the film “Le Déjeuner sur l’herbe”, Cagnes-sur-Mer 1959.

Director Jean Renoir, a woven hat resting in his lap, sits in a folding chair while filming “Le Déjeuner sur l’herbe” in the gardens of “Les Collettes” in Cagnes-sur-Mer, 1959. With a contemplative expression, he is surrounded by the activity of the outdoor set, where crew members work amidst filmmaking equipment, thick cables, and wicker chairs scattered across the dry, sunlit grass.
