At the Studios de la Victorine in Nice, 1955, a shirtless Pablo Picasso is seen from behind as he creates an enormous drawing. The bucolic pastoral scene, with its fluid outlines of nudes and a faun playing a pipe, was intended as a background for the film "Le mystère Picasso". To the right, his daughter Maya Picasso observes the artist at work.
