Pablo Picasso, Clouzot and Maya Picasso. The making of "La plage à la Garoupe I" for the film "Le mystère Picasso". Nice, Studios de la Victorine, 1955.

Director Henri-Georges Clouzot, seated in a striped shirt, holds a cigarette while Pablo Picasso, shirtless and contemplative, stands behind him. In the background, Picasso’s daughter Maya observes the scene. This moment was captured in 1955 at the Studios de la Victorine in Nice during the filming of *Le mystère Picasso*, for which the artist was creating the painting *La plage à la Garoupe I*. The studio is filled with numerous large canvases leaning against the back wall.
