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", Pablo Picasso’s painting "La plage à la Garoupe I" rests on a cluttered artist's shelf at the Studios de la Victorine in Nice, 1955. The large, high-contrast modernist work, primarily in black and white, depicts a series of interconnected beach scenes with stylized figures. Below the panoramic canvas, the tools of the artist—paint cans, brushes, and tubes of paint—are crowded together, evoking the active studio environment.
