Jean Cocteau with fishermen and officials at the time when he was working on his mural in the Chapelle Saint Pierre. Villefranche-sur-Mer 1956.
On the quayside of Villefranche-sur-Mer in 1956, Jean Cocteau stands beside a dark sedan, surrounded by local fishermen and officials. Dressed in a work jumpsuit, he is the focus of the group’s attention during the period he was creating his murals for the nearby Chapelle Saint Pierre. A young man in a striped shirt squats in the foreground, observing the interaction, which appears focused on the vehicle.
