Pablo Picasso during filming of "Le Testament d’Orphée", film of Jean Cocteau. At Villa Santo Sospir of Francine Weisweiller. Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat 1959.

Pablo Picasso is captured in a candid moment during the 1959 filming of Jean Cocteau’s "Le Testament d’Orphée". At Francine Weisweiller’s Villa Santo Sospir in Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat, the artist stands with a thoughtful expression, wearing a dark collared shirt and patterned trousers. With one hand raised to his ear, he holds a cigarette in the other. The background wall is covered with drawings, a large sun radiating behind his head, while the ornate back of a wicker chair partially frames the intimate scene.
