Jean Cocteau at Villa Santo Sospir. Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat 1954.

In 1954, at his Villa Santo Sospir in Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat, Jean Cocteau fixes the camera with an intense gaze. He has momentarily paused his work on the expansive mural behind him, a drawing tool still in his raised hand. The artwork’s mythological figures—a faun and a goat-headed creature—surround him in a workspace filled with creative implements, including tables cluttered with books, papers, and an ornate lamp casting a soft light.
