Pablo Picasso painting "La plage à la Garoupe I" for the film "Le mystère Picasso". Nice, Studios de la Victorine, 1955.
Shirtless and barefoot on the cool concrete floor of the Studios de la Victorine in Nice, Pablo Picasso is captured from behind as he works on "La plage à la Garoupe I" in 1955. The painting, a complex composition of geometric shapes, was created for the film "Le mystère Picasso." Strong, direct light from the upper left illuminates his back and the textured yellow wall, casting a prominent shadow of the artist and his canvas. The spartan studio includes a cardboard box and two bottles near his feet.
