Jean Cocteau and Raymond Moretti. Collective painting "L'Age du Verseau". Nice 1962.
In Nice, 1962, Jean Cocteau stands on a stepladder, intensely focused on the upper section of the large-scale collective painting "L'Age du Verseau." Dressed in a collared shirt and trousers, he steadies himself while applying white paint with a fine brush. Below, his collaborator Raymond Moretti, in a white sleeveless shirt, leans forward to work on a lower portion of the abstract canvas. The graphic composition features bold, curvilinear white lines, stylized faces, and eye-like motifs on a dark background, with paint tubes visible on the studio floor.
