The Begum, Jean Cocteau. Cannes Film Festival 1954.

At a formal dinner during the 1954 Cannes Film Festival, Jean Cocteau leans forward with an animated expression in conversation with the Begum. Seated at a table centered with a champagne bucket, they are part of a bustling, sophisticated gala in a grand room. In the background, a spectacular fireworks display illuminates the night sky, visible through large, arched windows and adding to the celebratory atmosphere.
