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.
In the dimly lit Studios de la Victorine in Nice, a high-angle shot captures Pablo Picasso’s large painting, the brightly illuminated focus of the scene. The abstract work portrays a bullfighter caught on the horns of a bull, a moment created during the filming of "Le mystère Picasso" in 1955. The canvas rests on a cluttered workbench as the silhouettes of seated observers watch intently from the foreground.
