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.

Shirtless and in profile, Pablo Picasso works on studies for his "War and Peace" mural directly on the rough stone wall of the Chapelle de la Paix. With a serious expression, he holds a can of paint with a long-handled brush. This scene in Vallauris, 1953, was for Luciano Emmer's documentary film, created while the original 1952 panels were away on exhibition. To the right, a wooden A-frame ladder leans against the wall.
