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 studies for his "War and Peace" mural directly on the wall of the Chapelle de la Paix in Vallauris, 1953. He created these drawings for Luciano Emmer’s documentary film while the original 1952 panels were away on exhibition. Here, the shirtless artist sits on a simple wooden bench in a moment of contemplation, observing his monumental line drawings, which include the iconic dove of peace holding an olive branch in its beak.
