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

At the Studios de la Victorine in Nice, Pablo Picasso’s multi-panel painting “La plage à la Garoupe I” is seen as a work in progress during the 1955 filming of “Le mystère Picasso.” The black and white composition features a dynamic central panel of intertwined nude figures, flanked by panels with stylized forms and geometric structures. In the foreground, a cluttered workbench is laden with the artist's tools, including open paint cans, jars, and tubes of paint.
