Pablo Picasso during filming of "Le mystère Picasso". Nice, Studios de la Victorine 1955.

During the filming of *Le mystère Picasso* at the Studios de la Victorine in Nice, 1955, Pablo Picasso stands shirtless and barefoot, hands on his hips. A stark spotlight illuminates his torso, casting a long shadow across the wooden floor. In the dark, theatrical space, he is surrounded by his creations, including a large cubist figure and a graphic cutout of a skeletal rider. In the background, other paintings and a wooden scaffolding structure are visible.
