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

Pablo Picasso’s panoramic painting “La plage à la Garoupe I,” created for the film *Le mystère Picasso*, is seen at the Studios de la Victorine in Nice in 1955. The sprawling modernist work, in a bold black, white, and grey palette, features fragmented forms and juxtaposed scenes. Stylized figures gather on the left, while two intertwined nude figures dance at the center. The composition dissolves into greater abstraction on the right. Below the canvas, a shelf is cluttered with an artist's materials, including paint cans, bowls, and tubes of paint.
