Pablo Picasso and Maya Picasso. "Le mystère Picasso", Nice, Studios de la Victorine 1955.
At the Studios de la Victorine in Nice in 1955, Pablo Picasso works on a painting for the film "Le mystère Picasso." Seen from behind, the artist applies bold, dark strokes to a large, translucent surface brightly illuminated from behind, making his creation glow. His daughter, Maya Picasso, dressed in a striped shirt, stands to his left, observing the process with quiet concentration. The glowing canvas is the primary light source, casting the rest of the studio into deep shadow and highlighting the tools of his trade on a cluttered table in the foreground.
