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

The painting "La plage à la Garoupe II" takes shape on an easel during the filming of Henri-Georges Clouzot's "Le mystère Picasso" at the Studios de la Victorine in Nice, 1955. The large canvas features a vibrant collection of stylized figures and bold geometric forms, from a celebratory central group to a complex, Cubist-style figure on the right. Below the work-in-progress, a paint-splattered shelf cluttered with open cans, jars, and brushes reveals the active workspace.
