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

The large, complex modernist painting "La plage à la Garoupe I" rests in the studio during the making of the film "Le mystère Picasso." Rendered in high-contrast black, white, and grey, the artwork is a collage of scenes centered on a white panel with two dynamic, silhouetted figures. The surrounding composition includes stylized human forms and fragmented, abstract shapes. In the foreground, a paint-splattered ledge holds cans and other studio detritus, evidence of the creative process. Studios de la Victorine, Nice, 1955.
