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, 1955, Pablo Picasso works on a large canvas during the filming of "Le mystère Picasso." Seen from behind and shirtless, the artist is absorbed in creating a complex Cubist bullfight scene, depicting the moment a bullfighter is caught by the bull's horns. His shadow is cast on the wall beside the artwork, which features fragmented figures, a central bull, and a horse with its head tilted back as if in a scream. Below the canvas, his art supplies lie scattered.
