Something begun as a bouquet has become first a fish, then a cock, and finally the head of a faun. "Le mystère Picasso", Nice, Studios de la Victorine 1955.

For the film "Le mystère Picasso," an artwork is captured mid-transformation. What began as a bouquet became first a fish, then this stylized cock, its body filled with intricate, cubist-like patterns. The canvas is propped on a rough wooden shelf at the Studios de la Victorine, with a lower shelf holding small bottles and triangular CINZANO ashtrays. Nice, 1955.
