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.
During the filming of "Le mystère Picasso," a large, cubist-style painting by Pablo Picasso rests on a cluttered mantelpiece. The horizontally oriented canvas portrays a dramatic stage in a bullfight, where a bullfighter is caught on the horns of a large, dark bull. The figure on the ground has a distorted, anguished face. Propped on simple wooden supports, the artwork is surrounded by the raw materials of the studio—brushes, containers, and a paint-stained rag—capturing a moment of artistic creation. Studios de la Victorine, Nice, 1955.
