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

Created for the film 'Le mystère Picasso' at the Studios de la Victorine in Nice, the large mixed-media artwork 'La plage à la Garoupe I' is seen in progress in 1955. The complex collage rests on a ledge, its central Cubist figure composed of geometric shapes in black, white, and gray. Overlapping the dark background are various papers with simple line drawings. Below, a paint-splattered shelf holds the artist’s supplies, including small bowls, canisters, and a paintbox.
