Maya Picasso and Henri-Georges Clouzot. "Le mystère Picasso", Nice, Studios de la Victorine 1955.

On the set of the film "Le mystère Picasso" at the Studios de la Victorine in Nice, 1955, director Henri-Georges Clouzot, seated in a director's chair, and Maya Picasso observe the production. Their attention is on a stylized drawing of a landscape clipped to an illuminated background, which is being filmed by a large Chevereau motion picture camera. The scene is precisely lit with professional studio lamps, creating a high-contrast atmosphere of deep shadows and focused activity.
