Catherine Hutin, Jean Cocteau, Alberto Magnelli and Pablo Picasso on the set of the film "Le testament d’Orphée", directed by Jean Cocteau. Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat, 1959.

On the sunlit set of *Le testament d’Orphée* in Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat, 1959, Pablo Picasso stands at the center of an informal gathering. Dressed in distinctive checkered trousers and a flat cap, he examines a small object. To his left, director Jean Cocteau places an arm around Picasso’s stepdaughter, Catherine Hutin. Behind them, painter Alberto Magnelli is visible in a wide-brimmed hat. The scene mixes the everyday with the eccentric, featuring a figure in a stylized animal mask from the film amidst coiled cables and lush foliage.
