At the Studios de la Victorine in Nice in 1955, director Henri-Georges Clouzot observes Pablo Picasso during the filming of the documentary "Le mystère Picasso." Seen from a high angle, the shirtless artist works from behind on a large cubist-style nude, the date "24.8.55" visible on the canvas. In the foreground, a film camera rests on a crate, while the artist’s palette and tubes of paint line the workspace.
