Jean Cocteau at Villa Santo Sospir with "Judith and Holofernes". Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat 1959.
Jean Cocteau stands at the head of an elaborately set dining table in the Villa Santo Sospir, Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat, 1959. He is framed by his own monumental mural, "Judith and Holofernes," which covers the entire wall behind him. Wearing a cardigan over a collared shirt and tie, he gazes directly at the viewer. The scene is dramatically lit by two ornate table lamps, highlighting both the artist and the bold, stylized figures of his artwork.
