Picasso working on a bucolic pastoral scene on drawing paper which was to serve as background for the film "Le mystère Picasso" by Henri-Georges Clouzot. Nice, Studios de la Victorine 1955.

Silhouetted by strong backlighting, Pablo Picasso is captured from behind, his hands raised to his head in a moment of deep thought. He sits before a large sheet of drawing paper destined to become a bucolic pastoral scene for Henri-Georges Clouzot's film, "Le mystère Picasso". The photograph was taken at the Studios de la Victorine in Nice, 1955.
