Pablo Picasso holds a clapperboard for a film directed by Luciano Emmer in his sculpture studio, Le Fournas. At the time, he was being filmed creating "La femme à la clé (The Woman with the Key)," a figure assembled from odds and ends from his personal scrap heap. The cluttered workshop, with its rough walls and exposed-beam ceiling, is filled with other sculptures, tools, and materials, conveying a sense of active creation as a younger man in overalls looks on. Vallauris, 1953.
