Pablo Picasso painting "La plage à la Garoupe II" for the film "Le mystère Picasso". Nice, Studios de la Victorine, 1955.

At the Studios de la Victorine in Nice in 1955, Pablo Picasso is captured at work on "La plage à la Garoupe II," a large-scale painting created for Henri-Georges Clouzot's film "Le mystère Picasso." Seen from a side-rear view in the brightly lit studio, the artist is dressed in shorts and espadrilles. He delicately applies a long paintbrush to the canvas with his right hand, while his left holds a cigarette and a palette knife. The painting rests above a makeshift table cluttered with tins, jars, and brushes.
