Shirtless and wearing only shorts, Pablo Picasso applies bold, black lines to a large sheet of paper, creating a bucolic pastoral scene. This work served as a background for Henri-Georges Clouzot’s film "Le mystère Picasso." To the right, his daughter Maya Picasso stands in profile, observing the creative process. The photograph was taken at the Studios de la Victorine in Nice in 1955.
