Pablo Picasso painting "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 is captured from behind as he works on the large canvas "La plage à la Garoupe I" in 1955. Created for the film "Le mystère Picasso," the painting rests not on a traditional easel but on a long shelf supported by two classical pedestals. Dressed in a polo shirt and shorts, the artist applies paint to the complex modernist composition. The surrounding studio, with its director's chair and lighting equipment, reveals the setting of the film production.
