Pablo Picasso during filming of "Le mystère Picasso". Nice, Studios de la Victorine, 1955.
At the Studios de la Victorine in Nice, a shirtless Pablo Picasso is photographed during the filming of “Le mystère Picasso” in 1955. With an expression of intense concentration, the elderly artist gazes down at a large canvas propped before him. The painting, in his characteristic style, depicts a reclining female nude with bold black outlines. Framed by a rough wooden structure on the studio’s unpaved lot, Picasso observes his work, his bare torso and arms showing signs of age.
