The making of "La plage à la Garoupe I" for the film "Le mystère Picasso". Nice, Studios de la Victorine, 1955.

Created for the film "Le mystère Picasso," the painting "La plage à la Garoupe I" is seen here at the Studios de la Victorine in Nice, 1955. The large, complex canvas is rendered in a cubist style of black, white, and grey. Its composition includes a central totemic figure with two heads, an abstract animal-like form, and smaller, primitive-style figures. Below the monumental work, a workbench cluttered with tins and tubes of paint grounds the scene in the artist’s studio.
