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

A modernist line drawing by Pablo Picasso depicts a nude woman reclining on her stomach as she reads a book. The work, defined by bold, sinuous lines, was captured on film during the making of “Le mystère Picasso” at the Studios de la Victorine in Nice in 1955. The photograph’s grainy texture and dark, irregular border suggest it was taken directly from a film negative.
