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

A drawing by Pablo Picasso of a reclining nude, created during the filming of the documentary "Le mystère Picasso." Rendered in a soft, sketchy style with charcoal or pencil, the figure is propped on her elbow, with blended shading giving her form a sense of volume. The grainy, black-and-white photograph was made at the Studios de la Victorine in Nice in 1955. Its thick, dark border suggests it might be a contact print from a negative.
