Jean Cocteau with a not yet identified associate in front of the Chapelle Saint Pierre. Villefranche-sur-Mer 1956.
In Villefranche-sur-Mer, 1956, Jean Cocteau stands with an unidentified associate before the Chapelle Saint-Pierre. Cocteau, on the left in a yellow V-neck sweater and dark jacket, places his hands on his hips. The building’s weathered, ochre facade bears the carved inscription “TRIBUNAL DE PÊCHE” above its arched doorways. On this bright, sunny day, strong light casts deep shadows across the sloping coastal street, while the green hillsides of the French Riviera rise in the background.
