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

Pablo Picasso works on a large painting at the Studios de la Victorine in Nice during the filming of the documentary "Le mystère Picasso" in 1955. Viewed from behind, shirtless and in dark shorts, he holds a glass and a tool, intently focused on the canvas. His daughter, Maya Picasso, stands behind him, steadying the top of the artwork—a stylized modernist nude with exaggerated, curved forms. Strong light from the right casts long, dark shadows across the bare concrete floor of the studio.
