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, 1955, Pablo Picasso’s large collage “La plage à la Garoupe I” is documented during the making of the film “Le mystère Picasso.” The complex artwork, a vibrant composition in blue, black, and white, features a central panel with two intertwined nudes. This is flanked by fragmented scenes of stylized figures. Below the piece, artist’s materials—bowls, canisters, and paint tubes—rest on a dark ledge, defining the studio setting.
