Pablo Picasso working on the "War and Peace study" drawings on the wall of Chapelle de la Paix (or Temple de la Paix) for the documentary film of Luciano Emmer. (The panels of War and Peace of 1952 were away on exhibition). Vallauris 1953.

Pablo Picasso works on "War and Peace" study drawings directly on the curved wall of the Chapelle de la Paix in Vallauris, 1953. Shirtless and seen from behind, he applies a sweeping black line to a composition of stylized female nudes. This work was for Luciano Emmer's documentary film, undertaken because the original 1952 panels were away on exhibition. The rustic setting includes an exposed stone wall, a wooden ladder, and scattered paint cans, underscoring the creative process in an unfinished environment.
