Pablo Picasso and Henri-Georges Clouzot. Cannes Film Festival, showing of "Le mystère Picasso". Cannes 1956.

At the 1956 Cannes Film Festival, a single candle flame illuminates director Henri-Georges Clouzot and Pablo Picasso during the showing of their film, "Le mystère Picasso". Clouzot, seen in profile in a tuxedo, holds the light and looks intently at the artist. Picasso, his deeply lined face thrown into sharp relief, looks down towards the flame with a contemplative expression, his hand raised to his mouth. The surrounding darkness isolates the two figures, creating a scene of dramatic intimacy.
