Pablo Picasso painting "La plage à la Garoupe I" for the film "Le mystère Picasso". Nice, Studios de la Victorine, 1955.

In 1955, at the Studios de la Victorine in Nice, Pablo Picasso works on the painting "La plage à la Garoupe I" for the film "Le mystère Picasso." Seen from behind, the shirtless artist, wearing dark shorts and what appear to be espadrilles, applies his brush to the large, modernist canvas. The complex work, filled with stylized geometric figures, rests on a long shelf crowded with jars and brushes. On the concrete floor near his feet, an open cardboard box for "LUX" soap is visible among other studio clutter.
