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.
Seen from behind, a shirtless Pablo Picasso stands on a wooden ladder in the Chapelle de la Paix in Vallauris, 1953. For a documentary film by Luciano Emmer, he sketches studies for "War and Peace" directly onto the wall, as the original 1952 panels were on exhibition. Wearing dark shorts and sandals, he draws large, black-line stylized figures, including a bird-like creature and a muscular form holding a horn-like object.
