Picasso during filming of "Le mystère Picasso" ("The Mystery of Picasso") by Henri-Georges Clouzot. Nice, Studios de la Victorine, 1955.

During the 1955 filming of "Le mystère Picasso" by Henri-Georges Clouzot, Pablo Picasso stands shirtless at the Studios de la Victorine in Nice. With his hands on his hips, he is surrounded by his own creations: a large Cubist canvas to his left and several whimsical, freestanding wooden sculptures to his right. The high-ceilinged, industrial-style film set, filled with scaffolding and lighting equipment, is dramatically lit from above, casting strong shadows across the floor.
