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

Jean Cocteau stands on the sunlit quay of Villefranche-sur-Mer in 1956, surrounded by local fishermen and officials. Dressed in overalls, the artist pauses by an open car door during the period he was at work decorating the nearby Chapelle Saint Pierre with his murals. The bright sunlight casts long, distinct shadows across the pavement. In the background, sailboats are moored in the harbor, and the town's steep, terraced hillside rises across the water.
