Pablo Picasso working on the "War and Peace study" drawings on the wall of Chapelle de la Paix (or Temple de la Paix) for the documentary film of Luciano Emmer. (The panels of War and Peace of 1952 were away on exhibition). Vallauris 1953.

Shirtless in dark shorts, Pablo Picasso stands on a stepladder, absorbed in drawing a study for "War and Peace" directly onto a wall of the Chapelle de la Paix. This scene in Vallauris, 1953, was for Luciano Emmer's documentary film, created while the original 1952 panels were on exhibition. In bold black lines, a large, stylized, bird-headed figure takes shape, with the artist's prominent shadow cast beside it.
