Pablo Picasso portrays a stage in the bullfight when the bullfighter is caught by the horns of the bull. During filming of "Le mystère Picasso". Nice, Studios de la Victorine, 1955.
At the Studios de la Victorine in Nice, Pablo Picasso paints a dramatic bullfighting scene for the film "Le mystère Picasso" in 1955. Viewed from behind in the cluttered studio, the artist, dressed in a patterned shirt and shorts, raises his brush to the large canvas. The high-contrast, cubist-style composition captures the moment a bullfighter is caught by the bull’s horns, rendered in bold, light outlines against a dark background. Below the work, the floor and a workbench are scattered with paint cans and brushes.
