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.

A shirtless Pablo Picasso stands in profile, focused on his work during the filming of "Le mystère Picasso" at the Studios de la Victorine in Nice, 1955. Holding a palette laden with paint, he dips his brush, poised before a large, dynamic canvas. The Cubist-style painting depicts a dramatic moment in a bullfight in which a bullfighter is caught by the horns of the bull. In front of him, a long workbench is cluttered with bowls, tubes of paint, and other supplies.
