Jean Cocteau, making a drawing for the 6th Cannes Film Festival. Cannes 1953.

Jean Cocteau, seen from behind in a light-colored smock, sits on the floor while creating a drawing for the 6th Cannes Film Festival in 1953. On the large, upright canvas, a stylized face with sun-like rays radiating from its eyes takes shape above the handwritten phrase, "Bienvenue à tous" (Welcome to all). An ornate table with art supplies rests beside him as he works.
