Viewed from behind, a shirtless Pablo Picasso creates a large-scale, bucolic line drawing on paper. This pastoral scene, featuring a musician with a double-piped instrument and figures holding aloft a small goat, was to serve as a background for the film "Le mystère Picasso". To the right, his daughter, Maya Picasso, watches him at work in the Studios de la Victorine in Nice, 1955.
