Pablo Picasso working on a bucolic pastoral scene on drawing paper which was to serve as background for the film "Le mystère Picasso". Maya Picasso on the right. Nice, Studios de la Victorine 1955.

At the Studios de la Victorine in Nice in 1955, Pablo Picasso works on a bucolic pastoral scene on drawing paper, created to serve as a background for the film "Le mystère Picasso." Shirtless and wearing a cap, the artist stands several rungs up a tall wooden ladder, his back to the viewer. Below, his daughter Maya Picasso stands on a wooden crate for a better view, observing her father's progress alongside two other men in the focused atmosphere of the studio.
