Jean Cocteau at Villa Santo Sospir posing with his "Autoportrait à la veste". Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat 1952.
In his studio at the Villa Santo Sospir, Jean Cocteau stands in a light-colored terrycloth bathrobe, his hands resting on the easel that displays his “Autoportrait à la veste,” 1952. With a pensive expression, he poses behind the striking modernist self-portrait, its face rendered in a stylized, graphic manner with sharp, angular planes that create a mask-like effect. The simple Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat studio features a cluttered workbench with artist’s supplies and a ceiling with exposed wooden beams.
