Pablo Picasso at work during filming of "Le mystère Picasso", documentary. Nice, Studios de la Victorine, 1955.

Pablo Picasso is seen from behind, shirtless in dark shorts, during the filming of the documentary "Le mystère Picasso" at the Studios de la Victorine in Nice, 1955. He leans over a low cabinet, holding a palette knife to mix paints. Before him rests a large, horizontal canvas of a stylized, reclining female nude, dated '29.8.55' in its upper-right corner. The floor is cluttered with discarded cloths, a cardboard box, and scattered paintbrushes, capturing a candid moment in the working studio.
