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

Created for the film “Le mystère Picasso,” the large canvas “La plage à la Garoupe II” rests on an easel at the Studios de la Victorine in Nice, 1955. The long horizontal composition features simplified, stylized figures outlined in black and filled with flat planes of vibrant primary and secondary colors. In the foreground, a cluttered work table with paint cans, brushes, and crumpled tubes of paint offers evidence of the artistic process, while sketches and notations are visible on the studio wall above the artwork.
