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

Pablo Picasso gazes intently at the camera in the Studios de la Victorine in Nice, 1955. Shirtless, he stands before "La plage à la Garoupe I," a large Cubist composition being created for the film "Le mystère Picasso." The complex artwork, which appears to be a collage with paper cutouts, rests on a workbench cluttered with paints and bowls. It features a prominent armored figure, while a separate sheet with simple line drawings is laid over a portion of the main piece.
