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

Pablo Picasso’s painting “La plage à la Garoupe I” is captured in progress for the film “Le mystère Picasso” at the Studios de la Victorine in Nice, 1955. The large modernist canvas, predominantly in shades of blue, black, and grey-white, depicts a crowded scene of stylized, linear figures. It rests on a cluttered wooden shelf holding paint cans and brushes against an ochre-colored wall. Above the painting, a square with numbers and symbols is drawn in pencil, while dramatic lighting from the left highlights the textures of the studio space.
