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.

A shirtless Pablo Picasso is seen from behind as he works on study drawings for "War and Peace" in the Chapelle de la Paix, Vallauris, 1953. With his left hand resting on a wooden stepladder, he recreates the large-scale line drawings on wall panels for Luciano Emmer's documentary film. This was necessary as the original 1952 panels were away on exhibition at the time.
