Jean Cocteau, seen from behind in a plaid jacket, works on the murals for the Chapelle Saint-Pierre in Villefranche-sur-Mer, 1956. He holds a long, thin paintbrush, applying a dark, fluid line to a large figurative drawing on the textured wall. His distinctive signature, featuring a star, is visible nearby. A ladder and a can of brushes on the floor signal the work in progress.
