During filming of "Le mystère Picasso". Nice, Studios de la Victorine, 1955.

A large modernist painting of a reclining nude, rendered with bold outlines and distorted forms, is pictured at the Studios de la Victorine in Nice in 1955. The photograph was taken during the filming of *Le mystère Picasso*. The canvas rests on a simple wooden support above a cluttered shelf filled with artist’s materials, such as bowls and paint-stained rags. On the wall behind the artwork, several chalk or pencil sketches are visible.
