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

A close-up view of the artwork "La plage à la Garoupe I" in progress for the film "Le mystère Picasso" at the Studios de la Victorine in Nice, 1955. The large, collage-like assembly of painted pieces is seen above a cluttered work surface. A central purple panel shows two stylized figures in a dynamic pose, flanked by contrasting scenes: on the left, simplified forms in a blue-gray architectural space, and on the right, a fragmented composition of geometric shapes and bold planes of color. The style recalls cubism and primitivism with its bold outlines and flattened perspective.
