Francine Weisweiller during filming of "Le Testament d’Orphée", film of Jean Cocteau. On the balcony Catherine Hutin, Alberto Magnelli, Pablo Picasso, Michele Sapone and Sabartés. At Villa Santo Sospir of Francine Weisweiller. Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat 1959.

Francine Weisweiller is filmed for Jean Cocteau's "Le Testament d’Orphée" at her Villa Santo Sospir in Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat, 1959. Dressed in a kimono-style costume, she holds a long pipe to her lips as a large studio spotlight illuminates the garden scene. Observing from the balcony above are, from left, Catherine Hutin, the painter Alberto Magnelli, Pablo Picasso, Michele Sapone, and Jaume Sabartés. The image's high-contrast, saturated tones are characteristic of vintage color film.
