Henri-Georges Clouzot, Jean Cocteau. Attending a private viewing of Pablo Picasso's book illustrations in the Matarasso gallery in Nice. "Pablo Picasso. Un Demi-Siècle de Livres Illustrés". Galerie H. Matarasso. December 21 - January 31. Nice 1956.

Filmmakers Jean Cocteau (right) and Henri-Georges Clouzot are captured in an intimate conversation at the Galerie H. Matarasso in Nice, 1956. They were attending a private viewing of the exhibition "Pablo Picasso. Un Demi-Siècle de Livres Illustrés". Cocteau, seen in profile wearing a prominent checkered scarf, is speaking while Clouzot, in a dark high-necked sweater, leans against a wall and listens intently. The grainy, high-angle photograph conveys a candid, spontaneous feel, documenting a private moment on the gallery's patterned tiled floor.
