Pablo Picasso and Henri-Georges Clouzot. "Le mystère Picasso", Nice, Studios de la Victorine 1955.
On the set of "Le mystère Picasso" at the Studios de la Victorine in Nice, 1955, director Henri-Georges Clouzot leans over a large bellows camera while in conversation with the artist. Shirtless and in dark shorts, a cigarette in hand, Pablo Picasso looks intently towards the filmmaker. In the dramatically lit studio, a large easel holds one of Picasso’s line drawings, capturing an intimate, behind-the-scenes moment of creative collaboration.
