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.
In 1953, a shirtless Pablo Picasso works on the bold line drawings covering the curved wall of the Chapelle de la Paix in Vallauris. These studies for "War and Peace" were created for Luciano Emmer’s documentary film while the original 1952 panels were away on exhibition. The chapel, serving as a studio, is appointed with a ladder, a makeshift workbench cluttered with paint cans and rags, and Picasso's striped shirt draped over a simple wooden bench.
