Pablo Picasso works on a large canvas during the filming of “Le mystère Picasso” at the Studios de la Victorine in Nice, 1955. Seen in profile, he portrays a stage in the bullfight when the matador is caught by the horns of the bull. A large studio lamp dramatically illuminates the stark setting, casting the artist’s shadow across the work in progress. A nearby table is cluttered with a paint-covered palette, brushes, and other supplies.
