Filming 'Le Testament d’Orphée' in Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat, 1959, director Jean Cocteau closes his eyes, holding a human skull to his face and a dark hibiscus flower in his other hand. To the right, actor Edouard Dermit watches with a serious expression. Between the two men, set into an arched alcove, is a large mosaic of a stylized face, vertically split into black and white halves.
