"Le mystère Picasso", work on corrida painting. Nice, Studios de la Victorine 1955.
During the 1955 filming of "Le mystère Picasso" at the Studios de la Victorine in Nice, Pablo Picasso is captured at work on a corrida painting. In the high-contrast light of the studio, the artist is seen from behind, a silhouette seated before his brightly illuminated artwork. A large Chevereau film camera is pointed at the piece, while crew members, also in silhouette, manage the powerful lamps that light the scene.
