Maya Picasso and Henri-Georges Clouzot. "Le mystère Picasso", Nice, Studios de la Victorine 1955.

Director Henri-Georges Clouzot looks through the viewfinder of a large Chevereau camera during the 1955 filming of "Le mystère Picasso" at the Studios de la Victorine in Nice. With him, observing the process, is Maya Picasso. From behind the crew, the dimly lit set reveals the focus of their attention: a brightly illuminated painting whose creation is being captured on film. The studio floor is cluttered with lights, wooden crates, and other filmmaking equipment.
