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, Pablo Picasso is captured in deep concentration during the 1955 filming of *Le mystère Picasso*. Dressed in a patterned shirt and shorts, the artist points with his brush at a large canvas propped on a cluttered workbench. The painting, rendered in bold white outlines on a dark background, depicts a dramatic bullfighting scene: the moment a bullfighter is caught on the horns of the bull. The stark lighting of the rustic studio creates strong contrasts and deep shadows.
