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, Pablo Picasso’s painting "La plage à la Garoupe II" is captured in progress during the filming of "Le mystère Picasso" in 1955. The large, abstract canvas rests on a wooden ledge amidst open paint cans, jars, and brushes. The composition features stylized, black-outlined figures and bold, flat areas of color, with a prominent, dark, tree-like form dividing the scene.
