Pablo Picasso with double Mask. 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 in 1955, Pablo Picasso stands behind a large rectangular board that serves as a double mask. Adorned with crude, childlike faces drawn in white chalk, the board conceals his head and torso. His arms emerge from the sides in a theatrical, palms-up gesture, revealing mismatched sleeves and a watch on his left wrist. Dressed in light-colored shorts and slippers, Picasso casts a strong shadow on the concrete floor of the film set, with studio equipment visible in the background.
