At the Studios de la Victorine in Nice, Pablo Picasso works on a large-scale bucolic scene intended as a background for the film "Le mystère Picasso." Shirtless and perched on a tall ladder, the artist extends his arm to draw on the massive sheet of paper. To his right, daughter Maya Picasso stands on a wooden crate, holding up a small container to assist him. The moment of creation is captured in 1955.
