Pablo Picasso and Henri-Georges Clouzot. The making of "La plage à la Garoupe II" for the film "Le mystère Picasso". Nice, Studios de la Victorine, 1955.
At the Studios de la Victorine in Nice, director Henri-Georges Clouzot confers with Pablo Picasso during the 1955 filming of "Le mystère Picasso". Picasso, bald and wearing a yellow polo shirt, listens intently as a strong light illuminates the large canvas before them: "La plage à la Garoupe II". The vibrant, modernist artwork rests on an easel in the dimly lit studio, above a makeshift shelf holding an assortment of paint cans and brushes.
