Pablo Picasso and Henri-Georges Clouzot during filming of "Le mystère Picasso". Nice, Studios de la Victorine 1955.
During the 1955 filming of "Le mystère Picasso" at the Studios de la Victorine in Nice, artist Pablo Picasso sits in profile on a simple wooden crate. Dressed in a tank top and shorts, he gestures with a lit cigarette towards two of his black-and-white artworks pinned to a panel. Standing directly behind him, director Henri-Georges Clouzot looks on attentively. The strong, dramatic lighting casts long shadows from the men across the floorboards, creating a stark, theatrical atmosphere on the set.
