During the filming of 'Le mystère Picasso' at the Studios de la Victorine in Nice, 1955, Pablo Picasso is seen from behind. He sits in his cluttered studio before a large Cubist painting that portrays a bullfighter being caught by the horns of the bull. The dramatic work rests on a mantelpiece laden with tools, pots, and rags. To the right, a large camera used for the production is partially visible, while the artist, wearing a patterned shirt, holds a hand to his ear.
