Pablo Picasso at work during filming of "Le mystère Picasso". Nice, Studios de la Victorine, 1955.

At the Studios de la Victorine in Nice in 1955, Pablo Picasso stands beside a monumental canvas during the filming of "Le mystère Picasso." Shirtless and wearing dark shorts, he crosses his arms, a cigarette held between his fingers, his intense gaze directed away from the camera. The in-progress painting depicts a reclining female nude in his signature cubist-influenced style. The surrounding studio is functional and well-used, with paintbrushes, cans, and a palette scattered among his art supplies.
