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

The creation of Pablo Picasso’s "La plage à la Garoupe II" is captured during the filming of Henri-Georges Clouzot's "Le mystère Picasso" at the Studios de la Victorine in Nice, 1955. Resting on an easel, the abstract canvas features a collection of bold, geometric shapes. A central black figure is crossed by a wide orange rectangle, flanked by yellow, blue, and purple forms. Below, a cluttered work surface with paint tubes, a can, and a jar offers a glimpse into the artist's active process.
