Pablo Picasso at work during filming of "Le mystère Picasso", documentary. Nice, Studios de la Victorine, 1955.

At the Studios de la Victorine in Nice in 1955, Pablo Picasso works on a large canvas during the filming of the documentary "Le mystère Picasso." Shirtless and intensely focused, the elderly artist extends his brush to a reclining nude rendered in his signature cubist style. Below the painting, a shelf is cluttered with tubes of paint and tins; on the wall above, sketches and the date “24.8.55” are visible.
